"In our time when technology and high stakes testing increasingly pervade education it is important to be aware of and to help foster the healthy human capacities that children will need for their challenging future."
This hands-on workshop is for teachers and educators interested in how learning is supported through the development of creative faculties. We will explore how children’s drawings and paintings can lay the groundwork for skills and faculties such as visual thinking, cognitive feeling (emotional intelligence), and moral imagination. We will focus on basic artistic principles that enhance the learning experience in the early classes and provide a basis for confident and skillful work later in life as some of the latest brain research demonstrates.
REGULAR FEE: Rs.4200 NPR (includes workshop fee, art materials, and lunch)
