Innovative Projects and Actions: Sharing, Reflecting, Evaluating

Semester 1-2 · 56001 · Weiterbildender Master (Aufbaustufe) "EDENSPACES - Gestaltung von Lernlandschaften zwischen Pädagogik, Architektur, Design und Natur" · 3KP · IT

The module addresses the theme of innovative design in educational spaces in dialogue with the needs of the territory, with the aim of developing tools for sharing, reflecting and evaluating the processes of change activated by the participants during the Master's course.
The course invites participants to explore the pedagogical, spatial and territorial dimensions of innovation, fostering the ability to read their projects as transformative and generative experiences of cultural, social and environmental impact.
The three perspectives - pedagogical and spatial (Weyland), territorial policies (Ietri), and architectural and communicative (Luigini) - intertwine to provide participants with an integrated vision of innovation in educational landscapes.
