Synopsis "A Year of Making and Learning (in English)"
A Year of Making and Learning celebrates twenty real life examples of learner-centred activities from fifteen countries. A diverse community of twenty-four educators share how exceptional learner-centred experiences can be designed by incorporating the creative elements of making in various contexts, ranging from primary to tertiary education, and across formal, non-formal, and informal learning environments. The educators discuss the technologies and strategies they used so that everyone can design learner-centred activities that create opportunities for deeper learning and empower learners to develop key skills to benefit themselves, local communities and the global economy.The writers featured include: Dr Ali Ahmad, Xavier Auffret, Camila Cerezo, Malena Cerezo, Romain Chanut, Ousia Foli-Bebe, Marina Gardash, Nick Giacobbe, Andrey Guryev, Lynn Hannay, Justine Hannequin, Anita Jantunen, Jenny Kostka, David Li, Girish Nair, Guiako Obin, Martin Oloo, Sue Parkes, Mark Rasi, Brandon Rodriguez, Mala Sinha, Alison Swann, Elena Tibi, Dan Whiteson.Foreword by Dr William Rankin, introduction by Farida Danmeri and conclusion by Dr Catherine Speight
