Creative Learning Toolkit

barbaragray19 — 2023-04-25 14:32:30 UTC

Julia and I, along with our colleague, Jonathan at Creative Scotland, are currently working on the development of a Creative Learning Toolkit. It will take the form of a ThingLink and will include sections for each user group (Primary, Secondary, Colleges, CLD, Parents, Learners etc). One of the themes that will be illustrated as an example of creativity in the curriculum will be strong practice in IDL.

Falkirk Chn's Services LfS Framework Files - Y McBlain

2023-06-06 13:51:24 UTC

At the IDL meeting on 26th April I spoke briefly about our Falkirk Learning for Sustainability Framework and folks asked for more info to be shared. Here is the link to an explanatory Sway https://sway.office.com/wolpoZTwZ83gTqJ3?ref=Link . I'm not sure how to upload an example of the progressive IDL plans which are part of the framework, but will investigate once I've published this message.

IDL Practitioner Enquiry

2023-06-12 20:14:23 UTC

This is a brief overview of the research enquiry which I carried out this year. I looked at how IDL could be delivered through a Froebelian occupation in the early years setting. My methods included bundling the Es and Os and using observations to evaluate the progression of the children's learning. During this action research project, I used my findings to inform my practice and to plan responsive experiences for the children.

PBL by Design at Callander and Strathyre Primary Schools.

burnsj50s — 2023-06-16 21:28:28 UTC

Linked to our work on the SDGs and to the Generation Earthshot initiative, children engaged with professionals working in careers connected with climate change and the environment including Loch Lomond and National Parks, RSPB, Town Rock Energy and One Planet Forth Valley with key questions in mind eg. How might we clean our air/build a waste free world/protect and restore nature?

Informed by their learning, classes were tasked with designing and then presenting their solutions in their own ways. The National Park fed back on solutions with a focus on innovation and creativity.
