Today i signed up for a tutorial with John to talk over what i am producing for the creative presence part of this module. We spoke about how i want to go into teaching and discussed the creative workshops that i have been involved in with the some other people in the course. John seemed quite impressed with our ideas of continuing to do creative workshops and mentioned that we should possibly not just limit ourselves to working with children and should consider branching out to all ages.
I mentioned that i had spoke to Simon Thorpe from within the college about my interest in becoming an art teacher after i graduate, as the curriculum and schooling could be possibly changing within the next few years. But if the rest of the group is interested, then we could continue to do creative workshops after we finish our degree.
John mentioned that we should get together and make a mission statement, nothing formal, but in our own tone of voice for why we want to do this.
If we do this then we could make business cards, t-shirts and instead of a website, a more conversational blog, with it we could video us making the promotional pack for instance, screen printing t-shirts etc.
There are a few things that John mentioned i should have a look at:
- Leeds Learning
- Ted Talks - Learning from children and Play
- Creative Experiences
