A method in delivering my teaching practice.
Trying to find time for students who needs an answer to a design question or design problem immediately. I’ve just finished a session on object learning and its very useful tool to use in resolving ideas and answering questions. An ‘object’ can be a short cut to encouraging, stimulating ideas for the student in finding an answer to their design challenges.
In my practise I’m surrounded by many objects that’s related to performance from theatre equipment/staging, equipment tools, paper materials, costumes, search manuals/instructions, imagery etc. These things we take for granted; but it’s exciting to know- to discover, that there are further elements within these objects that can still be explored and utilised to enrich the learning experience i.e. cultural, materialist, ethical, sustainable; to stimulate further discussion/learning, that I was not made aware of. To further engage with my student and the course programme.

This gold pen is similar to the one I use in my office-my ‘object’
