This is a series of workshops being delivered by the senior faculty at the Center for Applied Imagination at Buffalo State University. While we recommend attending all four days for a coordinated experience, each day can be taken as a free-standing, individual experience.
Day 3 Enhancing Courses, Workshops, Presentations, and Lessons using the TIM Design to Integrate Creativity into your Content Dr. Susan Keller-Mathers, Associate Professor, Center for Applied Imagination, Buffalo State University
Bring your outline of a course, workshop, presentation, or lesson to this working session. We’ll dive into advanced applications of the Torrance Incubation Model (with an accelerated basic view of the model to start for anyone less familiar with it) to start. Building from the framework you’ve constructed, the redesign will enrich and enhance both your content and the creative elements. You’re strengthening the Heightening Anticipation, Deepening Expectations and Extending the Learning stage of your work while integrating an aspect of creativity. Minimally, bring a sketch of something you wish to present from any topic or subject area. Ideally, bring the plans for something you’ve done previously (in any topic area) that works and could be enriched to take it to the next level of motivation and deep learning for your audience.
