Through a prompt-triggered actual creative writing session, teachers understood how the above skills could realistically be applied when creative pursuits were attempted.

Post-pandemic, the urgency of developing these waning skills was unanimously agreed on.

115 JulyCREATIVE WRITING TECHNIQUES THAT REALLY WORKANJUM KATYAL (at South City International School)The workshop focussed on enhancing the key skills required for creative writing, through a student's vocabulary building, precision development, sequential, analytical and critical thinking and how the same could be achieved in an everyday classroom scenario via picture composition, comic strips, graphic novels, alternative endings and flow charts. It was moreover suggested that starting as a group activity before putting down individual ideas can enhance a student's thought development process since they find add-on ideas in a 'chain-story' interesting. Inserting an 'unusual idea' in a topic too encourages creative thinking. A prompt triggered creative writing activity was conducted at the end.

This workshop was about inspiring friendships that are sought beyond gender, religion, nationality, local animosities, social status, different ethnicities and/or competition. Friendships that make us more resilient to all of life's adversities, that give us courage and push us forward because we know that humanity is not an empty word, but a very concrete experience. Friendships that made us more open because we understood something of the common ground that runs through us all. A session of storytelling and reflecting on superheroes of our own lives, who have changed the ways we view our world.

Prof Sundar Sarukkai

Thinking is a skill, students have to be trained to think. Thinking skills can be taught. Teachers no longer need to teach content but thinking. Start when they are very young. Get them to do it - so that it becomes a habit: why/how ; from known to unknown ;simple to complex ; easy words to technical terms.
