Advanced Training 4: PLAYI and LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® in Higher Education
LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®
PLAYI and LEGO®SERIOUS PLAY® in HE
ADVANCED TRAINING 4
Purpose:
This advanced training interweaves three main elements; LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®.
play literature and practices beyond LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®, and genAI-based approaches for learning in HE (e.g. university degrees, professional and formal qualifications, advanced and specialist study).
Content:
We will explore these three elements using a mixture of approaches – building, discussion, presentation, play design and reflection in individual and collaborative forms – to envision and create deep and valuable learning experiences for tertiary development.
Throughout this highly interactive day, you consider the different ways these three elements may apply in your context and start to plan for their use.
Through this workshop you will:
- Deepen your understanding of play-based and playful learning in HE.
- Discover findings from the recent PLAYI project on play-based learning using genAI and its relevance for wider contexts.
- Identify, design and test out (where possible) a learning experience combining play, genAI and LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®.
- Draw on the collective knowledge of the group to inspire and extend your own practices.
- Reflect on and prepare for the changing nature of learning in an age of genAI.
- Review and refresh your knowledge of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® in a higher education
- setting.
All previous trained facilitators in the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method are welcome at this training; whether you are new to the use of play and LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® in HE, or if you already have experience with both.
