Creative Pedagogy A Handbook for HE Professionals

The ultimate toolkit for lecturers and practitioners in higher education aimed at developing creative pedagogy that will inspire and empower students. It demonstrates how creative teaching and learning methods can engage students and encourage them to be reflective and mindful, as well as enhancing their potential to build social and cultural capital, increase their employability prospects, social mobility and civic participation. It recognises that traditional teaching methods do not work for all learners and embraces contemporary ideas, innovative strategies and new technologies that can provide appropriate and accessible learning for students, enabling HE lecturers to challenge the status quo and expand their creative teaching skillset. Learning can become a co-construction between the lecturer and students with outcomes of increased retention in the classroom, more engagement in the learning, and more fun. This could be the start of doing things not only differently but more effectively.
