Scottish Learning Festival

Marks on the landscape - Inspiring creativity across the curriculum

The session will look at the opportunities for developing creativity and inter-disciplinary learning using the LTS website 'Marks on the landscape - Inspiring creativity across the curriculum'.

Design for the Scot Loch landform

The website focuses on the Fife Earth Project and the works of landscape artist Charles Jenks. From the site of a surface coal mine in Fife a striking, iconic, sculpted landscape is emerging which will celebrate the influence Scots have had on communities and cultures on every continent.

Linking social studies, science, expressive arts, technologies and themes of sustainable development, global citizenship and outdoor learning, the website provides the stimulus for a range of learning experiences, including a design challenge.
