I love the engagement, excitement, energy, enthusiasm and deep learning that occurs when authentic learning creates: curiosity and the want to know more; critical thinking and the ability to ask questions; collaboration and the understanding of how to work well with others. creativity and ability to imagine and create something new and communication through sharing of ideas and knowledge.  All of these skills will help us to create a better future in life, learning and work for ourselves and others.

Hello - I'm Jane. I'm a designer and brand consultant / newcoloursmade.com / who is passionate about design thinking. I was excited when Clare invited me to help shape this platform and idea. It's been great fun - and I hope children and young people in Stirling find it fun to use. I want to encourage them to have confidence in their creativity, not to be afraid of a blank piece of paper and see the the very real value of their imagination.
