Opis

Imagine 400+ students in a collegiate auditorium, standing room only, (20 on a waiting list), and all eager to learn. Music is escalating down the halls as balloons ricochet haphazardly, some students are dancing and all are laughing. It is a class on Creativity and it is a PARTY HAPPENING. Through the laughter... CREATIVE ideas are flowing, and there is no threat of criticism. (After all, they are only kidding around.) Together, creative projects are launched like water-balloons and the teacher is the target, cardboard transforms into boat races, snowboarding--but there is no snow, and a personal favorite; come to class with no clothes on. Did I mention, the media loves this stuff? It is the most popular class on campus, because it gets the Creative Juices flowing. Having taught this class for 20-years, I believe it should be a part of every college campus. It is a class that brings back the child who once thought education was exciting and sometimes even fun. Walking on Water And other Minor Miracles will help you learn how to put the FUN back in dysfunction and unleash a new world of CREATIVE problem solving. (Bill Boon is a professor emeritus in Landscape Architecture at Iowa State University where he taught this course on Creativity for 20 years.)
