REVIEWERS' COMMENTS
‘This book is timely and refreshingly engaging.
Forget your preconceptions of collage and mime; this book looks at 360º creativity, from the perspectives of pupils, teachers
and school systems. This book is about real change, not just about new teaching initiatives.’
Rachel Lofthouse, Learning
& Teaching Update
'Whether you are a student starting out, or an experienced teacher
looking to spruce up your teaching methods, then the Creative Teaching & Learning Toolkit needs to be on your bookshelf'
Helen Bulbeck, National Association
for the Teaching of English
‘As a training teacher I have found this book to be inspirational
in my quest to become creative in the classroom. I found the chapter on reflection particularly useful as evaluation and reflection
are a key aspect of successful teaching and for continuing improvement.’
Felicity Hayes, St. Martin's
College
‘When
this book arrived I had to work hard to keep it in my possession. Colleagues glancing through were saying, "I like that!"
"Oh, that's really good" and "That's exactly how our training should be". I don't doubt that its impact on us will be great.’
Steve
Clark, Bournville School Birmingham
