Lincoln Center Institute Registration is open. Upcoming Courses The following courses will begin on June 23, 2010. Survey of LCI Practice: Studying Works of Art, Creating Curriculum, Exploring Imaginative Learning The newly-created survey course is composed of rich excerpts from two of the four courses in the series. The examples have been chosen carefully to offer as complete an introduction to imaginative teaching and learning as possible. All instruction is applicable across the curriculum and invaluable for all teachers. Participants address the importance of studying works of art, explore the Capacities for Imaginative Learning, and join the experiential workshop around Ghostcatching, a digital work of art. They learn how to plan instructional units, and view the work of Lincoln Center Institute teaching artists and teachers in elementary, middle, and secondary education. Video case studies provide real-life explorations of issues in classroom settings. Upon completion, participants understand the function of the Capacities for Imaginative Learning, explore multimedia and multidisciplinary resources, plan instructional units using LCI's approach, and much more. Those who wish to explore the above-mentioned themes, and more, in greater detail and more in-depth study, are invited to pursue Courses 1, 2, 3 or 4 individually or as a complete series. Course #3: Integrating Curriculum and Pedagogy for Imaginative Learning In the past two courses, you have been introduced to imaginative learning, the study of works of art, and Lincoln Center Institute's process for creating curriculum. Prior to trying this work on your own, we'd like you to spend time creating truly rich lessons that connect to your curriculum and your students' lives in a variety of ways. We will also introduce you to "Guiding the Noticing," an important part of LCI's teaching practice, so you can begin to think about how to integrate your curriculum and pedagogy to foster imaginative learning. Note: Course #3 is open ONLY to individuals who have already taken Course #2 or the Survey of LCI Practice course. These online courses are made possible by generous grants to Lincoln Center Institute from the Verizon Foundation and from the LuEsther T. Mertz Charitable Trust. [top]
