IMS Ghaziabad (University Courses Campus) Hosts Faculty Development Programme on ‘Creative Teaching’ to Foster Innovative Pedagogy

New Delhi [India], November 11: IMS Ghaziabad (University Courses Campus), renowned for its academic excellence and forward-thinking educational approach, successfully organized a Faculty Development Programme (FDP) on the theme “Teaching Creatively” at Indirapuram Public School, Pratap Vihar. The initiative focused on fostering pedagogical innovation and improving classroom effectiveness by incorporating creative techniques into modern teaching and learning practices.

The FDP served as a collaborative platform for educators and faculty members to explore contemporary instructional methods, interactive teaching tools, and learner-centric strategies designed to make classroom sessions more engaging, experiential, and impactful.

Empowering Educators through Creativity and Innovation

The session focused on how creativity can be embedded in teaching practices to inspire students and deepen understanding across disciplines. Faculty participants engaged in hands-on activities, brainstorming sessions, and experiential learning modules designed to foster curiosity, collaboration, and critical thinking among learners.

Through a series of interactive discussions, the FDP emphasised the importance of shifting from conventional lecture-based teaching to participatory and experiential learning models, where students take an active role in constructing knowledge. Educators were introduced to techniques involving storytelling, case-based learning, gamification, problem-solving, and visual pedagogy, enabling them to make complex concepts accessible and enjoyable.

Speaking at the event, the resource experts highlighted how creativity in teaching goes beyond artistic expression; it is about designing meaningful, flexible, and inclusive learning experiences that cater to diverse learning styles and encourage students to think independently.
