Description
21st-century educators face a new frontier beyond the boundaries of traditional teaching practice and pedagogical praxis. Imagination Creativity Education (ICE) creates fresh opportunities for teachers who are committed to genuine, empowering, experiential learning.
In Crushing ICE: Short-on-Theoretical, Long-on-Practical Approaches to Imagination Creativity Education, teachers will discover how to:
- take risks and transition with confidence from conventional to imaginative and creative approaches
- promote collaborative learning
- enrich the efficacy, esteem, and identity of learners
- implement learning-centred strategies, activities, and practices informed by diverse theoretical perspectives
- advance meaningful inquiry and relational learning that engages learners at a deep level
Every day, teachers-confronted with student exceptionalities, multi-age groupings, overemphasis on provincial standardized testing, and intransigent administrative practices and directives-struggle to promote curiosity, imagination, creativity, innovation, creative process, and risk-taking in their classrooms. ICE teaches a practical, alternative approach that recognizes the importance of these constructs within the self as teacher, the other as learner, and all together in a community of learnership.
An exposition of ICE, Crushing ICE shows educators how to challenge the status quo enroute to fostering innovative learning in regular courses, visual-arts, performing arts, and educational transitions.
This book is an instructional resource text focused on pre-service and in-service teachers for creativity-based education. Crushing ICE is a unique compilation of scholarly yet practical writings by nationally and internationally recognized teachers and teacher educators who present a predominantly pan-Canadian perspective. It can equally serve as a supplementary text or core text in university courses.
