Become Courageous – Week 18
How might we create opportunities for the NIS community to be courageous?
In week 18, a stage environment in front of the library will have the following play/experiment/learn items:
- Monday – Hula Hoops
- Tuesday – Simple DJ equipment
- Wednesday – Juggling Balls
- Thursday – Art Easels and Supplies
- Friday – Piano
Courageous learners and creators are invited to enjoy and interact with any articles on the stage.
They will be filmed with the purpose for review by the prototype team to see if activities should be scaled or ditched.
This prototype is inspired by Sugata Mitra’s 1999 Hole in the Wall experiment.
Computers were placed in a slum in Kalkaji, Delhi to enable
unsupervised access, informal, public, self-guided and collaborative work
to synergize through creative and courageous play.
Enjoy,
The Courageous Prototype Team
Swimming Pool Closure
