I was recently asked to provide examples of innovative and supportive actions from my own experience and then to identify how these may be embedded into an educational programme. This is a blog loosely based on the presentation that I gave. I use a Pecha Kucha style and lots of pictures so is easier to digest. I thought I'd share it here for anyone with a similar interest to my own who may also be invested in using the creative arts in teaching, learning and research. So my presentation plan was to: 1. highlight a recent report from the Higher Education Academy in relation to innovation in education. 2. mention a few cycles that may be useful in innovative learning processes 3. share some ways in which I have used innovation within my practice 4. outline some of the benefits that may accrue from using innovative, flexible, creative arts in an evaluative approach to teaching, learning and research. I always live in hope of divine inspiration and took this pic
