SUMMARY:Co-Creating Futures
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Gig Johnson has given intensive workshops for three days to small groups of researchers from UIC Barcelona on new teaching methodologies: innovation\, artificial intelligence\, and creativity. The Co-creating Futures days\, in which Johnson participated\, were promoted by the Aula de Calidad e Innovación Docente de UIC Barcelona with the collaboration of the Puig Foundation\, which provides resources for scholarships and grants for teaching innovation. The Aula de Calidad e Innovación Docente was born with the aim of responding to the interest of teachers to implement innovation initiatives and projects in the classroom\, and to promote the continuous improvement of the teaching processes of all the teachers of UIC Barcelona. To this end\, dynamics are generated in the classroom that favor teaching innovation or that foster the concern for research in teaching innovation. \nFacebook Reels: https://www.facebook.com/reel/731409002184226
