What is Sublime’s Teaching for Artistic Innovation about?

Sublime’s Teaching for Artistic Innovation is an initiative by Sublime to enhance the teaching capabilities of the art teachers and take art education not just to the shortlisted few( through Berserk) but to all the children of a school. It is an initiative to enable the art education in a school through the medium of value addition and effectively enhance the creative capabilities of a child. 

Why should your school participate in Sublime’s TFAI program?

According to the economists of the country, by the year 2020, 65% of India will be under the age of 35 years and 50% of India will be under the age of 25 years. The average age of Japan will be 47 years, China is around 40 years, Europe is 46 years, United States is 40 years while the average age in India will be 29 years- The youngest population.

International labour organization has worked out that 116 million people in the workable age group of 20 to 24 years will be required in the coming decade. China will have only 94 million and US will be 17million people short at what they will need at working age. In order to equip and take advantage of this economic reform and showcase innovation and brilliance across fields Sublime believes that the conventional education need to be supported with the creative education as a fully embodied physical experience is what that triggers the imagination. 

According to Ken Robinson, “Creativity is a dynamic process of having original ideas that have value more often than not comes with the interaction of different disciplinary ways of seeing things. “, Sublime’s TFAI program is designed to enable the teachers with the know-how who in turn will enable their school to equip their students to strive and hone whatever makes them unique as an independent unit.

Who will be conducting the program?

Based on our research there will be two aspects to the TFAI program. Art and the Humanities. Arts and humanities go hand in hand in terms of identifying the uniqueness of a talent and encouraging expression.

Sublime will compile a panel of experts under the categories of theatre, dance, music, visual art, art pedagogy and humanities who in turn will spearhead the program under respective verticals. 

How will Sublime’s TFAI conduct this program?

Sublime’s TFAI is an annual program that will be conducted in the following format:

Biyearly conference with the panel members

Week on week interaction with the nominated faculty members

Creative learning tools and content will be shared through the Berserk and STFAI portals 

Bi yearly reports on the progress of the school 

Curriculum design- on request

Availability of expert advice via email(and calls when required)

Opportunity to apply for national/international scholarships for outstanding students via Berserk

Awards and cash prize through Berserk 2016 in recognition of unique creative initiatives taken by various schools

 

 

How should the school nominate a participant? What is the eligibility criteria of the participants?

Decision makers with respect to the art curriculum in schools

Art teachers graduated in the arts or should hold a master’s degree(for teaching)

Can be a teacher under theatre/dance/music/visual art category

Up to two teachers nominated by the principal can participate from a school (preferably the cultural co coordinator and the arts teacher in theatre/dance/music/visual art category or the most creative and innovative teacher is to be chosen)

The school can choose any/ all art vertical/s 

Participants chosen should come with the experience of handling various age groups(8-14 years) and should want to bring about a substantial change in the quality of art education in their school

The initiatives in the art curriculum within the resources available should be encouraged by the school and the same will be tracked by TFAI

How much is this going to cost the school? What are the resources that the school should allocate?

The pilot conference of Sublime’s TFAI program is being offered on invite only to schools associated with Sublime over the two years and a total of 15 schools will be participating on a first come first serve basis. As the pilot conference is on invite basis no remuneration will be charged however a nominal fee will be charged for programs held after that. The Program will be customized to accommodate resources available in each school.

Implications of the program on Berserk 2016?

Berserk, apart from the residential conference, will now become a property that recognizes initiatives taken by schools and cultural academies. The recognition will be in the form of  awards, cash prizes and scholarships to outstanding students to enable national or international exposure and learning under expert guidance.
