Support your understanding of the Creative Workshop tool from the DIY Toolkit and how you can use it to help you work with others to solve problems.
This DIY Learn Creative Workshop module begins with a set of Learning Outcomes. These highlight what you should expect to know and be able to do as a result of studying it.
As you work through the module there are some
in-text activities to help test your understanding of the material. At the end,
there are self-assessment questions (SAQs), with answers, to help you assess
your learning against the Learning Outcomes.
We estimate this module will take between two and
three hours to complete for an independent learner with a good level of English
and at least secondary level education. The module is divided into smaller
study sessions, each of which follows a standard pattern to make it easier for
you to plan your time.
If you enrol, via the button above, study the
module and complete the quiz at the end of the module you can gain a digital badge and a
statement of participation as a record of your achievement. Digital
badges are a new way of demonstrating online that you have gained a skill in
your chosen subject. Badges are not accredited by The Open University but
they’re a great way to demonstrate your interest in the subject and commitment
to your career, and to provide evidence of continuing professional development.
We’re always delighted to hear from our learners.
Please send feedback on the module to OUDO-International-Enquiries@open.ac.uk, we are
particularly keen to hear what you have done with the skills and tools you have
learned.
Whilst the module has been designed to be studied
independently this is not the only way it can be used. The DIY Learn Trainers Handbook provides guidance on using all the modules as a basis for group
training in a classroom setting.
DIY Learn is an initiative of Nesta and The Open
University, made possible by The Rockefeller Foundation.

This course is very important for applying in daily work.
Through this workshop, we learned how to generate new ideas by receiving both feedback and new experiences, which help strengthen our creative thinking and allow us to apply it effectively.
