During my time in the not-for-profit sector I have been privileged to work with some amazing and creative people; a total departure from my corporate life.I have also worked in the Youth Services provision sector and have seen people so passionate about giving children the best start in life possible, despite a lack of regular or consistent funding.That is why I am proud to be part of the Make Space family – a social enterprise built to bring both these elements together – creativity squarely aimed at children.Educators in schools and colleges are doing an amazing job. Distilling information and presenting it in a dynamic way so that students can absorb and learn is such a difficult thing to do. Maintaining the energy and enthusiasm to connect all that learning with students is a gift!We all know that teachers are being stretched; with increased budget cuts and administration demands, having the space and time to develop creative additions to their lesson plans to compound the understanding of a topic is unlikely. The time spent on creativity in general is being squeezed out of the curriculum too. Some schools only have time for 'Art Week' just once in a whole school yearWhat if there was a creative and immersive learning experience you could engage students in; link it to a school's topic for that term for example, bring a subject to life, built creative confidence and enhanced the understanding of the subject? “Learning is defined as an alteration in long-term memory. If nothing has altered in long-term memory nothing has been learned.” Make Space workshops are exactly that. We focus on delivering stop-motion animation workshops in which young people take the lead by• Translating what they are learning about into a storyboard• Creating original artwork, • Capture their stop motion film, •Write a script •Record the audio to accompany the film. It is an amazingly flexible medium that can be used to reiterate school topics, explore PHSE themes and bring awareness to current global topics amongst many other ideas. The possibilities are endless!If you would like to discuss a Make Space workshop for you school, learning centre or organisation and to see how we can help bring learning to life.
