  • DPPH S01E03 Part 2: Jazzing Up Syllabi

    27/09/2021 Duração: 23min

    This full episode serves to explore, discuss, and develop actionable practices to deconstruct syllabus and alternative forms of pedagogy, by looking at intersections between music jams and a classroom. How can we "jazz-up" our syllabus? In the second part of episode 3, our team explore decolonial practices around syllabus deconstruction and explores new pedagogies inspired by artists, jam sessions and other ways to work together that gives room to each player, but also improves our listening and our way to tune in. Building on lived experiences we also highlight some of the best classroom experiences that push the limits of student agency and create a new learning environment. Some of these explorations could potentially evolve the social dynamics, to become undisciplined and flatten awkward power dynamics in the classroom towards horizontality.
