Lego Days
The TY students participated in a LEGO® Serious Play workshop on 20th/21st/22nd October here in St. Aidan’s, delivered by Kathy Lambkin of Lego Brix Ireland. Lego Serious Play is a method that facilitates communication and problem-solving, during which the students were are led through a series of questions, probing deeper and deeper into their chosen subject . Each student built his or her own 3D LEGO® model in response to Kathys questions using specially selected LEGO® elements. These 3D models served as a basis for group discussion, knowledge sharing, problem solving and decision making. It certainly was a very enjoyable and worthwhile day for all.
The LEGO® Serious Play method is a technique which improves group problem solving. By utilising visual, auditory and kinesthetic skills, the method requires participants to learn and listen, and it provides all participants with a voice
By using the LEGO® Serious Play materials and methodology students explore the relationships and connections between people and their world, observe the dynamics both internal and external, explore various hypothetical scenarios, and gain awareness of the possibilities. All of this process deepens students understanding, sharpens their insight, and “bonds” together the group as it “plays” together.
