Creatives Academy

This project will provide an exciting and engaging educational approach that will support students develop their creative and ultimately professional competences, as well as 21st century skills such as interdisciplinary working, problem solving, etc that will transform them into creative and flexible thinkers and professionals of tomorrow ready to adapt to the new normal. Within project activities and through pilots, students will be able to:
i) by engaging in professional encounters with CPs at school, gain new quality knowledge in the field of creativity, which will equip them with self-confidence and boost their motivation for the CCS. Moreover, cross-sectoral activities will enhance innovative thinking, since they will be engaged in hands-on projects, learning from CPs and entrepreneurs;
ii) by co-designing more entrepreneurially focused activities, students will learn and apply creative and design thinking, and entrepreneurship competence development techniques;
iii) increase their academic learning, critical thinking and problem analysis skills as well as improve their ability to apply what they’ve learned in real world;
CPs: Participating CPs will increase their professional capacity of working in a school environment, will learn from teachers’ methodology and knowledge how to pedagogically approach students and teaching and will find flexible and adaptable ways to incorporate creativity tools in schools curricula. Eventually they will also develop and engage new audience, since they start working with students, teachers and entrepreneurial professionals.
