On June 22, 2023, we visited Vienna with our teacher group at the invitation of the Technische Universität Wien, where we got acquainted with a special project – Innovationslabor für Bildungsräume in bewegung (BiB Lab). In free translation: Innovation laboratory for educational spaces in motion.
Karin Harather, Ass. Prof. Mag. art. Dr phil. project leader welcomed and guided us. All three workshops operate in a housing estate environment, one of which was set up in an bus. Thus, throughout the summer, it offers programs for children at various points in the housing estate.
At the heart of the project is the creative use of space, which is suitable for learning, exercise and relaxation, and in the design and planning of which the requests and ideas of users, children, and teachers were included.
In the afternoon, we visited an international school, which had considered the users’ needs during its construction. Among the members of the research group, Dalma Dani-Ördög organized and led the study trip, teachers from 8 schools participating in the research joined the program.
