The Participate team has had the privilege of taking with partners in the Learning Through Play initiative funded by the Lego partners for the past few years and decided for today’s episode to compile a highlight reel for the series focused on communities of practice!
In this episode, we talk with the Scaling Learning through Play with Technology (Tech and Play) research collaborative team at Education Development Center, Inc. (EDC). The research collaborative supports the Lego foundation’s extensive work promoting learning through play (LtP) globally. Through the Tech and Play research collaborative, EDC brings together research and implementation partners to work in Brazil, Denmark, Kenya, and Rwanda to (1) increase our knowledge about the benefits of LtP with technology in diverse national contexts and (2) enable the establishment of sustainable LtP with technology programs.
Today’s episode features Anna Netto, Research and Pedagogical Innovation Coordinator for the Creative Schools Program. The conversation focuses on the role of communities of practice in the Creative Schools program dedicated to supporting local and regional governments in Brazil in transforming public schools into more playful, hands-on and stimulating environments for all students.
In Episode 2, the team from the Plug in Play initiative in Rwanda joins the Participate team to discuss the impact of communities of practice. The conversation focuses on both in-person and the the online community of practice, Tinkerspace, that joins partners across countries participating in the Learning Through Play initiative funded by the Lego Foundation.
Since 2021, the Tech & Play community of practice, TInkerspace, has provided a space for research partners to share their experiences, resources, and insights with one another. Now that we are in the final year of the program, we are taking the opportunity to invite implementers, researchers, and specialist partners to reflect on their journey within this community.This podcast series has two main goals. First, to have partners look back and reflect on their experience in the community – what worked well and what could have been done better. It’s a learning experience for the whole community. Secondly, partners are invited to look forward and think about how they want to leverage the networks and relationships they have built over the past four years.
