PLAiful Indicators
PLAiful Indicators
We know play is context-specific and varies based on a number of factors. Inspired by the Pedagogy of Play, we created an idea of what "playful learning" might look like for us as members of PLAi based on responses on the Miro board last month to "how does play look/feel/sound?".
Some questions came up:
What is the difference between "play" and "playful learning"?
What do we do to play when we co-opt it for learning purposes?
Are these indicators from the adult perspective or child perspective?
How can children generate their own indicators of playful learning (and should they?)?
We're looking forward to diving into some of these questions next month!
Play!
Connecting with multispecies: playing with movement
This week our provocation was to think of a creature/being/material/more-than-human other and try to embody it in a movement or series of movements. Then, we shared our movements to each other and tried to guess what being was being portrayed.
Can you guess which creatures and beings we are embodying here?
Provocation: Diffracting two "texts"
We discussed how these two talks speak to each other - while coming from different fields and presenting different kinds of work, both speakers argued for the need to change the discourse around how to face the Anthropocene: finding the small steps people are taking that have a big impact, and de-centering the human to find our place within nature.

Concluding thoughts
Concluding thoughts
What messages do we send others when we focus on the "doom" narrative instead of hope?
If we're looking toward visions of the future, and we're trying to shift away from the negative visions so we don't move further towards them, then the idea of a vision in which we are connecting with everything else within the world - in a posthumanist idea of 'we're not better than them' - would be a very positive vision of what the future could be.
