Event Description
In this fun, interactive workshop, Rob Morgan will provide a look at the creative practice fields and the valuable lessons they teach all of us! Drawing on a popular first year course called Designing Creativity that he’s co-taught to more than one thousand students over the past ten years, as well as his multi-disciplinary design background, Rob will lead us in exploring the value of creative approaches in all classrooms. We’ll cover how collaboration, testing and re-testing ideas, prototyping concepts, overcoming fears, venturing guesses, thinking divergently, and the creative process in general are applicable to nearly ALL disciplines. Along  the way, we’ll learn about how to ‘elevate and celebrate’ creative intelligences in our students as well as in ourselves.
