As a student at The University of Alabama who has twice experienced Seminars in Creativity with Dr. Janeann Dill and seen each time how rich the experience can be, I am extremely excited at the idea of opening up a "virtual classroom" that will extend these seminars to include minds from, quite literally, the entire world! These seminars are in diametric opposition to â??arid lecturesâ?: Dr. Dillâ??s classes do not consist of a professor talking â??atâ? a silent class, but are rather forums in the fullest senseâ??melting pots of thoughts and new ideas, with a focus on the mutual enrichment of intellectual contributions from the professor and from the students. I am very much looking forward to seeing how these virtual classrooms come to life!
