This presentation provides specific and practical information\, along with shared experiences that seek to teach students how to learn for themselves\, to build meaning from their own lives and a curious culture\, processed through imagination\, metacognition\, and the entire creative process. Creativity can be taught. Teachers of all content areas and students will come to view curriculum creation as an artwork in itself. We will work through the framework of the creative process\, talk about priming your classroom culture for these experiences of meaning through curiosity\, building domain skills\, and then moving through the step by step processes and exploration I use in a collaborative environment built on trust\, empathy\, and excitement. How do we manifest metacognition? Why is creativity the Big Intelligence that is at the center of everything we say we want for students? Let’s answer these questions.\n\nPresenter: Chris Sykora \n\nMembers and non-members are welcome to join us! \nREGISTER: \nIf you would like to earn Illinois PD hours for this webinar\, please choose the PD option. \nWebinar Registration without PD hours (Open to All!)\nWebinar Registration with PD Hours (Members only) URL:https://ilaea.org/events/webinar-cultivating-student-choice-through-the-creative-process/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://ilaea.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/1-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20211218T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20211218T114000 DTSTAMP:20260403T123401 CREATED:20211121T225704Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211206T230451Z UID:38275-1639825200-1639827600@ilaea.org SUMMARY:Virtual Event: Disabled Conceptual Artists DESCRIPTION:Description:\nThis presentation will be focusing on intellectually compelling and engaging contemporary work by disabled artists\, and suggesting ways to not only lead units with this artwork\, but also to use these ideas and artworks to critically challenge ways in which schooling can marginalize disabled students.\n\nPresenter Bio:\n\n\nBert Stabler was a full-time art teacher for ten years at a neighborhood high school on the south side of Chicago\, in which many students received special education services.
