This paper explores the creative dimension of two writing, illustration and musicalisation workshops of tales around the world carried out with Pedagogy students within the TALIS project in a rural campus of the Northeast of Brazil. The main goals were the recovery of the historical memory and cultural heritage of the Paraiba region (Brazil); in-service and pre-service teacher training in line with the principles of Education for Sustainable Development; and the development of creative teaching materials in written and audiovisual formats. The data gathered through questionnaires, semi-structured interviews as well as the analysis of the productions showed a great receptivity and a high degree of engagement of participants with regard to the three creative dimensions dealt with. Moreover, their contributions helped enrich the project, allowing for the integration of innovations regarding the inclusion of new topics, such as the vindication of historical places and figures through the tales; and of new forms of expression, such as the musicalisation of tales and the inclusion of dramatisation as an integral part of the workshops.
Keywords: creative writing; illustration; musicalisation; dramatisation; world tales.
