Coach Creativity Skill: Supplementary Guide RED - Graeme Smith - Bog

RED is for secondary school students and adults.There is more confidence.Their experience is broader.So the range of materials previously encountered is now broadened as well.But they are still gaining greater experience so there is still a need for repetition.Variations within a limited range of materials will provide the foundation.The developmental aspects are given more prominence.They are increasingly important as student experience and confidence increases.Planning criteria is also introduced so you can develop your own path.The new facets of Coach Creativity Skill are introduced in a gradual way.That helps students' gain confidence so improved creativity skill is a benefit for all.You know that creativity is something someone does too.They solve a problem, invent something or bring into existence something new.That means like all other behavior, skill can be developed.BUT the hardest part of developing any skill is to keep going for long enough!Many repetitions of the appropriate behaviour are required, over a long period of time.In addition there must be an ever-higher level of difficulty to improve performance.Developing skilled creativity is no different!Experiments use different materials to introduce the visual elements.How can the component elements of visual material be understood?What kinds of visual materials are there anyway?Developments build on past experience.The different processes of change reinforce previous learning.This leads to developing creativity skill.Two components (code - focus) that combine to title an experience unit.The unit code: Indicates the sequencing of the unit.Unit focus indicates coach planning emphasis which determines the material choices.Base the plan for your experiments on the unit focus.The necessary materials are available in sufficient quantities for your students.Developments are an extension from experiments.These should gradually change over a period of time.Developments guide progression?What relationships do aesthetic principles refer to?How do different environments influence creative activity?Experience gained forms the basis for later creativity skill development.Students develop the creativity everyone has.Using the principles outlined in this guide anyone can coach creativity.AND if they continue long enough anyone can develop student skill at this behavior.
