Course Description

In Cyprus art activity has played an important role in the educational system. Visual Arts give value to the richness of the curriculum, whilst enhancing students’ and teachers’ creativity skills leading to resourcefulness.

 

Resourcefulness as an ability to rapidly discover clever ways to overcome challenges has always been necessary in teachers’ and students’ daily lives and future. It leads to finding “outside of the box” answers, where there seem to be none. It brings new brilliant ideas and creative solutions to the daily lives of teachers and their students.

Simultaneously art related activities help reduce stress levels and empower other life skills such as mindfulness, self-esteem and empathy, thus leading to mental empowerment. They gently and effectively unlock the subconscious mind and allow the release of pain and the process of emotions. What better tool to face school and life challenges!

This course will bring together various forms of visual arts applied in the Cypriot educational system, while sometimes offering forms with a twist. Providing a hands-on approach for teachers and students, the course content, structure and methodology will assist participants to increase creativity, intuition and self-expression thus leading to stress-management, joy, inner peace and harmony.

Visual Arts skills are not needed. This course is for all levels: All are welcome and needed!
