IDIS 140 - Unlocking Creativity

4 Credits

1 Units

This course introduces students to a variety of approaches to unlock creativity. Hands-on exercises and experiences provide usable approaches to help students increase spontaneity, follow their intuition and get out of the way of their own ideas. They will learn to recognize obstacles to creativity, and begin to break down habits and patterns that block the flow of creative thinking. These techniques, though applicable to artistic practice, are useful outside of the arts. Creative problem solving, brainstorming, and seeing/thinking in new ways are essential skills for navigating an ever-changing world, and are prized in the workforce. Activities in the course include Visual Art, Movement/Dance, Sound/Music, and Writing. (M6)(Public Speaking)
