Leaving Space for Creativity

People are most excited and committed to a topic when they can share some aspect of themselves, or have the space, permission, and confidence to create something.

Assignment Creation.

Challenge students to go beyond content-assessing quizzes! Allow students to create something to assess a deeper understanding of the topic.

Assignment Submission.

Maybe reimagining assignments is overwhelming for you. Or maybe you are interested in taking baby steps toward teaching a more creative course. I find leaving space in Assignment Submissions encourages the creative process, and students take more ownership because they have the ability to choose some aspect of it.
