Overview

Higher education should be a place for students to innovate, create, and expand their horizons, and in order to create an environment which allows for all these things, tutors need to be able and willing to do the same. This practical and informative book explores how a diverse range of tutors working in the Arts and Humanities disciplines have succeeded in thinking creatively about their teaching, module design, and extra-curricular activities without losing sight of necessary academic rigour.

This is an insightful, readable collection for teachers, course designers and others who care about arts and humanities education. The voices included from across disciplines show how teaching and learning is a creative, evolving, porous two-way process not only between educators and students, but also pre- and post-Covid, technology and human, university and society, classroom and the workplace. -- Eliza Compton, Deputy Editor of Campus, Times Higher Education, UK This book represents a positive collection of case studies and practical tools to support practitioners in developing creative classroom practice. The collection demonstrates continued reflection on practice by academics to inspire creative engagement in a range of learning spaces. -- Annabel Kiernan, Pro Vice Chancellor Academic, Staffordshire University, UK
