The Architectonics of Curiosity

Education is a transformative pursuit; individuals come together and engage in transformative interactions and experiences. As with many forms of structural invention, the consequences of thoughtful invention within the structures of education are ultimately unique spaces. The spaces of education are participants in the construction of knowledge. What we ‘know’ is constructed not only within us, or the exterior world, but in-fact between the world and our experience of it. This opens the possibility of education as a communicative exchange between individuals, their social environment, and the spaces they inhabit. Our spaces of education ultimately can afford us the possibility of inhabiting our questions and creating an architectonics of curiosity.

In this talk Professor Gersten will address these questions from a number of perspectives, specifically looking at the interdependence of education and the spaces of education.
