Dr. Tessa Forshaw

Join Dr. Tessa Forshaw, a cognitive scientist at Harvard, and Richard Cox Braden, founder of People Rocket, as they delve into the concept of creativity viewed as a teachable skill. They explore why students lose their creative confidence around sixth grade and share innovative strategies for reclaiming it. With a focus on iterative processes and emotional safety, they challenge traditional notions of innovation. Their insights from writing 'Innovation-ish' highlight the need to embrace ambiguity and foster collaboration in higher education.
