Hybrid Platforms and Creativity

Hybrid Platforms and Creativity was the companion project to my Undergraduate Dissertation ‘the Hybrid Learning Framework and Creative Facilitation: What Platforms are emerging to facilitate creativity in a post-COVID hybrid learning environment for University Students?’.

Based around my research, the project consisted of conducting two different workshops, one online and one in-person, simulating a design process. Each task in the process centred around a different method of creativity and investigated how it was affected by which format the group participated in.

Each task was a different stage of the design process and themed around a method of facilitating creativity e.g. communication, immersion etc
