Wabash Center Pedagogy of Play Roundtable

Play is often described as the work of childhood, but what is its role in the life of an adult learner and teacher? What might there be to learn from and through play? This interactive play-shop will be one that is inherently experimental and will require a level of openness, vulnerability, and risktaking. Participants will play, create, imagine, wonder and engage in movement that is open to all levels of ability and capability. Participants will engage in a “both and” experience where they will be both experiencing pedagogies of play and thinking deeply about play theory and the physiological and neurological benefits of play. There will be time for planning and workshopping how to incorporate pedagogies of play in participants’own contexts.
