Risk, resilience and professional learning across the professions
The following questions served to guide the sessions:
- What is creativity in the context of professional learning? Do we need it?
- What are the associated risks and benefits? For practitioners? For professional identities? For learners? For pedagogies? For research and researchers?
- Is there a relationship between creativity and resilience?
