Creative Movement as a Tool for Discovery, Research, and Equity is a seminar focused on the usage of creative movement activities as a vehicle for student engagement and understanding. Creative movement tools are not about gamifying lessons. Instead, they’re about taking concepts, distilling them into their essential parts/questions, and providing opportunities for students to translate those parts through the visceral body thereby solidifying their learning.
