Putting creativity centre-stage with Helena Good
SYNOPSIS
In this episode, we’re not talking about a piece of creative work but about educating creativity itself.
Helena Good, a Founder and Director of Daydream Believers and former TES FE Lecturer of the Year joins me to share her journey.
Helena spotted a problem I’m sure we all recognise:
"Creativity makes a guest appearance in education”
Right at the point when the business world is crying out for creativity, it's dangerously close to being written out of the educational experience.
Critically, she is doing something about it with a visionary resource platform Daydream Believers.
Watch this short conversation and you’ll get how smart this is and potentially how you (and your university) can get involved.
CRHEATE REVIEW
I was inspired by Helena when I first met her some years ago. Her students from Edinburgh College swept the board at the DMA Breakthrough Awards for students. It was a hugely impressive achievement. Daydream Believers continues that theme.
