PROJECT ROEBLING seeks to empower through engagement. This workshop aims to explore how a more open design-studio dynamic might begin to bridge the space between formal classroom and informal self-taught and/or peer-to-peer learning spaces. Beginning from the sense of agency involved in youth governing their own learning, presenters not arguing for the integration of formal and informal learning; rather, they are looking to research through design what a synthesis of these might produce.
