Kursus “Creative Aging – loov vananemine”, käitumis-, sotsiaal- ja terviseteaduste doktorikooli liikmetele

Creative Aging Programs: Caring for Older Adults with the Arts Therapies

Aeg: 31.08 - 01.09.2018 (kell 10-13:15, 14-17:15)
Koht: Tallinn, Räägu 49, ruum 317.
Õppejõud: Raquel Chapin Stephenson

Kursus “Creative Aging – loov vananemine” teeb sissevaate kunstidel põhinevasse lähenemisse. Fookuses on vanamaealiste loominguline potentsiaal, selle realiseerimise võimalused ja loomingulise tegevuse kasu tervisele, heaolule ja enesehinnangule. Kursus annab juhiseid kunstidel põhinevate programmide koostamiseks tegevusvõime ja elukvaliteedi säilitamiseks, loominguliste väljakutsete loomiseks.

Koolitus on üles ehitatud aktiivsele osalusele diskussioonis ja praktilistes loomingulistes tegevustes. Programmis on toodud peamised loengu- ja aruteluteemad ning vastav kirjandus, mis on soovitav eelnevalt läbi töötada. Praktilised tegevused hõlmavad kunstitööde tegemist, milleks ei ole vaja kunstioskusi. Materjalide ja vahenditega tutvutakse kohapeal ning lihtsate juhendatud kunstitööde puhul on rõhuasetus loomingulisel protsessil, mitteverbaalsel eneseväljendusel ja omakogemuse reflekteerimisel.

Kursust viib läbi prof. Raquel Chapin Stephenson Ph.D., ATR-BC, LCAT, kes on Lesley Ülikooli (USA) kunstiteraapia professor, kunstnik ja kunstiterapeut ning loova vananemise programmi juht.
