The Living Classroom: An Immersive Learning Experience in the Magic of Prague

One-Week course in:
Prague

Description

Concept by Lucie Příšovská, Debbie Liebenberg

Traditional classroom teaching often struggles to fully engage students’ senses and imagination.

To foster meaningful learning experiences, educators need new ways to connect their lessons to the world outside the classroom.

Prague, with its rich history, artistic heritage, and captivating stories, presents a unique opportunity for educators to transform learning into an immersive, hands-on adventure.

This course introduces teachers to the art of creating multi-sensory, student-centered learning experiences using Prague as a living classroom.

Participants will learn how to design guided activities that incorporate history, storytelling, art, and digital tools, enhancing student engagement and curiosity.

Participants will explore Prague’s historical and cultural landmarks, uncovering hidden stories and artistic treasures.

They will learn to harness creative methodologies such as storytelling, scavenger hunts, and art-inspired activities to captivate their students.

Workshops will focus on using photography and soundscapes to capture the essence of the city, as well as strategies for guiding students through engaging educational activities that connect history and culture to the present.

By the end of the course, participants will have the skills and confidence to design immersive, multi-sensory learning experiences for their students.

They will gain expertise in incorporating storytelling, art, and creative technologies to enhance engagement and bring history to life.

Equipped with practical tools and fresh ideas, teachers will be ready to turn any setting into an inspiring educational adventure, fostering curiosity and meaningful learning beyond traditional classroom walls.
