MOE was created by UK based educator Dorothy Heathcote (1926-2011). This student-centred approach begins with the group's needs, interests and curriculum objectives and further develops in the classroom where educators and students co-create real and fictional spaces. Tensions, conflicts, and decisions are explored in and out of role, and solutions are decided upon collectively. MOE can be used with learners of all ages and can be implemented into a diverse range of subjects making learning meaningful and exciting.This episode was recorded at the National Arts in Education Portal Day on Saturday 9 November 2024.Produced by the Arts in Education Portal.A transcript of this recording is available to download here Hosted on Acast.
