The Science of Creativity Dr. Erica Halverson: How the Arts Can Save Education
Dr. Erica Halverson is one of the world’s leading experts in arts education. She’s a trained actor who’s founded two successful acting programs for school children, one in Chicago and one at her current home, the University of Wisconsin at Madison. She’s an expert in helping children realize their creativity. Her research shows that children learn much more from the arts than just painting or acting. They learn profound skills like collaboration, how to translate ideas into reality, and—most profound of all—they learn who they are. We’ll talk about her book called How the Arts Can Save Education.
