Dear colleague,
Do teachers need to be creative? What stops us from being creative? How can we and our students become more creative?
This highly practical, interactive seminar will help you to discover small changes that can make a big difference to creativity in the classroom. Three speaker sessions will provide successful activities and real-life examples to inspire teaching and learning. Participants will be encouraged to unleash their creative side by writing and drawing throughout the event and we will also be joined by an artist, who will illustrate thoughts and ideas as they arise.
We encourage all attendees, online and in person, to make comments and ask questions. Share ideas and network with fellow English language teaching professionals watching the event around the world:
- on Twitter using #ELTcreativity
- on the #ELTcreativity Padlet
- or using the comments section to the right of the live-stream player on YouTube
In the meantime to help you to get the most out of the live-stream you can:
Read extracts from the new publication Creativity in the English language classroom
- Watch a video about how to be creative in the classroom (to the right of this text) with Alan Maley, co-editor of Creativity in the English language classroom
