Send us a textThis is the second episode in a 3-part mini series about exploring creative education, both as a noun and a verb; new ways of thinking about assessments, grading and ungrading with 3 brilliant educators who work and teach in the spaces of communication, design, creativity, art and art therapy. In this episode, you’ll hear from researcher, educator, designer and artist, Rupsha Mutsuddi, about her upbringing in a variety of school systems and the ways it’s led to her current path. You’ll hear about the unique interdisciplinary nature of Rupsha’s cohort in the PhD in Global Health program at York University and how they use grades to support students through a pathway of their choice using a pass/fail model. Rupsha shares how important it is for designers to be able to articulate their value, the benefits of iteration and the importance of staying in the divergent stage of thinking for longer than we think we have to. Finally, you’ll hear ideas about encouraging vs. stifling creativity in the classroom.Brave Creative Human: Embrace Failure, Reframe Imposter Syndrome, and Be Unapologetically You is available in paperback and as an ebook!I'm all about interesting projects with interesting people!
