This time you are supposed to create a comix in Makebeliefscomix.com. You will find all the instructions here.
-
Do schools kill creativity? Watch the TED Talk by Ken Robinson and take notes into your double diary. Have your comments ready for the next session.
-
-
This time you will explore your creativity through a land art project. It is completely up to you how you will approach it. You will find all the instructions and also some inspiration in this PowerPoint presentation.
-
This task is focusing on implementing Bloom`s Taxonomy in teaching practice. You do not need to upload this one into Moodle. Just bring it to the next seminar.

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.
-
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 is going to be very special. You will explore what Figurerunning is. All the detailed instructions are available in this file. Before opening the file, try to guess what this quote might mean: "The world is our canvas and you are the pencil." You can work in pairs or individually. It is the only assignment this time (there is not the second one).

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.
-
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.
