ESW Lunchtime Seminar
CIRCLETS
Friday 9th March, 3.30pm
Room 102, Fulton
Dr John Parry, University of Sussex, presents:
‘Community knowledge-building and environmental
learning’
____________________________________________
With the opening of an environmental community
knowledge-building centre imminent and ten years
in the making, this seminar explores the theoretical
context and accompanying framework that underpin
such an initiative, with particular reference to the
knowledge-building principles set out by
Scardamalia in 2002 linked to theory regarding
environmental learning.
John seeks to link theory with actions on the ground
and will suggest how an embedded and integrated
knowledge-building approach from architectural
design to operation might pre-figure ways of
encouraging environmental learning.
