Abstract

The teaching and learning of creative arts is anchored on embodied and collaborative learning where practical learning form the bases for knowledge transfer in a physical learning environment. In Kenya, the rapid shift to online modes of instruction has significantly impacted on such conventional pedagogies for teaching. This chapter presents a comparative analysis of the experiences of tutors and learners in public and private institutions of higher learning in the Creative Arts. It examines how they are adapting to and navigating online modes of instruction, how they are utilizing various online tools for effective teaching and the limitations thereof. The chapter contends that there are glaring differences in the access of online classes between the two categories of institutions and argues that there is need to take learners and tutors through the basics of digital teaching and learning for such instruction to be effective. It also urges that learning institutions should adopt a phased approach to mitigate challenges of access in Creative Arts instruction in Kenya.
