Description:
<p><b>Unlock the creative power of collaborative teams</b></p>
<p>Imagine telling your group their next task will be building a life-size model of a humpback whale in the foyer. Would they gaze at you with blank stares, or would their eyes light up as they turn to each other to get busy?</p>
<p>Written by a team of five educators, the <i>Collaborative Creativity Idea Book</i> is designed to grow a culture of collaborative creativity in educational and professional environments. This idea book helps educators venture out from Robert Kelly’s seminal <i>Collaborative Creativity: Educating for Creative Development, Innovation and Entrepreneurship</i> to discover a wealth of practical learning activities educators can start using today.</p>
<p /><i>The Collaborative Creativity Idea Book</i> goes beyond team-building exercises and icebreakers to walk you through five stages to establish a culture of collaborative creativity:
<ul>
<li><b>Getting to Know Each Other</b>: build trust and identify strengths among individuals when they first form a group</li>
<li><b>Learning to Listen</b>: enhance group interactivity through the development of deep and active listening, allowing ideas to multiply</li>
<li><b>The Design Process</b>: prepare as a group to tackle larger-scale initiatives that move into real-world contexts</li>
<li><b>Growing the Collaborative Culture of Creativity</b>: establish sophisticated group norms to take on creative-design initiatives of greater complexity</li>
<li><b>Collaborative Creativity for Real-World Audiences</b>: tap into the creative power of the group to engage in real-world problems for real-world audiences</li></ul>
<p>Whether as a support for the <i>Collaborative Creativity</i> textbook or as a standalone resource, the <i>Collaborative Creativity Idea Book for Educators</i> empowers groups to exponentially increase their creative potential to accomplish amazing results.</p>
