Improv is more than the gags and one-liners on “Whose Line is
It Anyway?” Improvisation skills are now being used in multiple professional
fields to improve communication, stimulate creativity and enhance
collaboration. In this inclusive, relaxed and interactive workshop, you will
learn some of the principles that underlie effective improvisation through
large and small group exercises that can be used in any classroom. Participants
can expect to take away simple but effective exercises to enhance student engagement
and empathetic communication through active learning.
