In this interactive workshop, participants will learn how to guide learners in creating blackout poems—an artistic process that fosters a personal and meaningful connection with any written material, regardless of discipline. This engaging activity enhances comprehension, retention, and concentration skills—all while sparking creativity and fun.
The resulting poetry is unique to each learner and can be enriched with complementary mediums such as drawing or music, reflecting the essence of their creation. This process offers a valuable window into the learner’s understanding and celebrates their individuality.
Whether done individually or in teams, blackout poetry supports the development of transversal competencies like critical thinking, creativity, and emotional expression. It can serve as a personal assignment, a class exhibit, or even a submission for publication—offering a wide range of possibilities that build confidence and encourage self-expression.
The webinar is offered with simultaneous interpretation in French.
