Dear colleagues,

 

Have you ever thought about how you might use LEGO® bricks for learning? If so, and you want to find out more about how you can use LEGO® in your teaching and research, then keep reading!

 

The Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning will be offering a one day hands-on playshop to introduce participants to LEGO® for Learning delivered by accredited and experienced LEGO® Serious Play® facilitators. Valuable insights will be gained through LEGO® model making, metaphors and storytelling. Gain hands on experience of techniques and approaches with colleagues from a range of educational backgrounds and identify opportunities to use LEGO® in your practice. If you teach, support learning and or carry out research and would like to explore the use of LEGO® in these contexts, then this playshop is for you!
