Teacher Twilight Series

Making it up: Improvisation Across the Disciplines of Music & Science.
In teaching, we listen and respond to our students in order to help them make sense of new ideas and problems on their own terms. Musicians and scientists do this all the time too. In this workshop, we’ll actively practice some listening, responding, and creating in the musical, scientific, and teaching arenas and discuss how these can be put into practice in our own respective classrooms.
