  • Introduction to ECT Course

    Sbalit vše Rozbalit vše

    • Welcome to ECT Moodle course. You will find here all the materials we will go through together during our sessions and links to interesting videos. It will be also the place where we will discuss various topics and share feedbacks. As I mentioned previously, there is no exam at the end of the course. However, you will get regular assignments to do after each session. Moodle is the place you will find instructions to these tasks and upload your assignments.

      You will always get 2 assignments after each lesson. The aim of the first one is to unlock your own creativity and to strengthen your divergent thinking. The purpose of the second task will be to deepen your knowledge about theory of creativity, creative learning in the early years and most importantly, how to develop creative thinking in children.

      Instructions - detail description of Scavenger Hunt Soubor

      This week is going to be special. Your task is to meet in front of the faculty, split into 3 groups and submit couple of missions in Goosechase applications. You will find all the information in the pdf above. The walk will be around 2,5 km long, it starts at the faculty and finishes at the Basilica of St. James. I recommend you to follow numbers of missions from NUMBER 1 to NUMBER 9.

    • ikona Soubor
      ASSIGNMENT 1: Photos in a Gallery Soubor

      This time you will go for a walk and take photos. I would recommend the city of Prague (not necessarily the city center, because suburbs can be very inspiring, too). If you are back home, just go to any other city or village that is around. All the instructions are in this presentation.

      ASSIGNMENT 2: Types of Play Soubor

      Read this chapter from the book Creative Learning in the Early Years by Ruksana Mohammed and answer to the questions. All the instructions are described in this file. Deadline for both tasks is Sunday before our next session.

    • This time choose only ONE TASK out of two - either more theoretical one or more practical one. The options are as follows (DEADLINE IS 31st January 2023):

    • ikona Soubor
      OPTION 1: Peter Langland-Hassan - Explaining Imagination Soubor

      Read the text Explaining Imagination by Peter Langland-Hassan (app. 35 pages) and write a summary (at least 500 words). Obviously, It is a good task for those who like reading a do not mind slightly phillosophical texts.

    • ikona Soubor
      OPTION 2: Creating a Lesson Plan Soubor

      The second option is to choose a topic from primary school curriculum (any subject you want - Maths, Mother Tongue, History, Science, Integrated Project..) and create a lesson where children develop their creative skills. I am uploading a simple structure you may use as a support and checklist. You can incorporate ideas that were presented in the course.
