Creating in the Classroom

Get your student's creative juices flowing by creating something each day

Spend less time lecturing

Students will passively consume what you are teaching through lecture

Use Interactive Learning Materials

Instead of traditional textbooks, try to use ones that are online and interactive

What I think about students creating:

  • It helps bring the learning alive for the students
  • A student's future can be shaped by their willingness to create
  • We live in a world where new things are created everyday
  • More creating = more hands on learning = more engaged students
  • Creating helps every student successfully learn in their own way
