Creativity workshop: Reviewing the process of teaching, learning and acting in Psychology

Abstract

The Creativity Workshop, a supervised clinical internship discipline offered in the psychology course at University Paulista, has proved to be a fertile ground for interns, not only in the process of professional training, but also at the personal level and through the opening of new fields of activity in the work with groups. As a discipline, it offers future psychologists a place for self-experimentation, providing their development alongside professional preparation through thematic proposals that involve the use of expressive resources as facilitators of the process. The supervisory experience in this discipline of the field activities and the reports of students and institutions that benefit from these services reveals a way of seeing learning as a place for the discovery of powers, based on a different psychological activity, which goes from experience to theory, aiming to raise awareness and flexibility and to turn people into creative, critical individuals who are able to guide their own history.
