Artistic and Innovative Dimension

Throughout the activities developed with the students, teachers have the responsibility of giving way to
creativity and innovation.
Through the projects suggested during this month, take into account:
The cultural strength of “Time”, giving the students chance and space to process their thoughts,
and to be able to explore the themes in more depth.
Stress, once more, that when we talk about innovation processes, we refer to the creative
ability to transform something by giving it value, improving it and making it useful for one or
more people.
Children, especially of pre-school age, have much creativity; as teachers, it is vital to give
value to these ideas and grant time to develop them and transform them into realities.
Proposals for this month´s topic:
•

How can we improve the computer we use every day at school? How would it work? How
would we like it to work?
