LEARNING EXPERIMENT:INDIVIDUAL CITIZEN

 

Platform Arts

July-August 2013

 

This 2 month long programme of exhibitions, workshops and events explored a variety of learning models and the relativity of information. Through education formats that ranged from the traditional to the challenging, the LEARNING EXPERIMENT explored how we share and utilise information, giving participants the chance to progress towards an ideal citizenship. Each week in August a teaching model was trialled within our dynamic multifunctional learning environment.

 

Week One - PAY: Classes in DIY, Dance, Philosophy, Computing and Cooking

Week Two - SWAP: Skills exchanges in Japanese Language, Eco Cleaning, Ceramics and more

Week Three - SHOW: Crisis Talks and Performance Lectures

Week Four - TEST: Circuit Training

 

This project was curated by Sighle Bhreathnach-Cashell, Hannah Shepherd and Dorothy Hunter. The Learning Environment interactive installation was designed by Richard Martin, Sighle Bhreathnach-Cashell and Hannah Shepherd.
