À propos
The 'Creativity and imagination in Education' mind map template, containing 97 nodes across a single sheet, provides a comprehensive framework for educators and students exploring the intersection of creativity, imagination, and learning. It defines creativity as 'the tendency to generate or recognise ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems' and emphasizes that 'C&I-One can not exist without the other.' The template covers key concepts such as 'Imagination,' 'ICT' tools like Movie Maker and Xmind, and 'Aboriginal 8 Ways of Learning,' including 'Story sharing' and 'Non-linear' approaches. It also features 'Salmon's 5 Stages' of online learning and 'Imaginative capacities' like 'Noticing deeply' and 'Making connections.' This mind map serves as a practical cheat sheet for designing curricula that foster creative and imaginative behaviours in both teachers and students.
