073 Creative Constraints & Good Errors

Release Date:  March 12, 2023 Leave a Comment

View Segment 1 Transcript

Episode Synopsis

This month we are joined by two authors of a piece on constraints that fuel creativity. They share how limits on our writing help us focus on new parts of the writing process and make interesting connections along the way.

Later, we read about how errors are essential to the learning process and what we as teachers can do to make more productive use of the errors students will inevitably make.
