Creativity in a digital age – Can we replace crayons?

Abstract:

COVID-19 has flipped the academic world on its head. We’ve moved from face-to-face interactions to engaging via a screen. What then, does this mean for creative research methods? How can we engage in creativity through this new digital landscape?

In this presentation, we will explore together what creativity truly means and how we can create creative spaces in which to research in through a digital age.

Please bring paper, pens and an open mind to this session.
