On 24 April 2023, H.E. Mrs. Sirilak Niyom, Ambassador of Thailand to Denmark led the delegation of teachers from Roong Aroon School, an alternative school in Thailand, to visit Playlab Campus Carlberg. Mr. Tobias Heiberg, Head of Playful Learning Programme, extended a warm welcomed and provided an overview about the concept and operation of Playlab, a teacher training institution under the University College Copenhagen. According to Mr. Heiberg, the training uses a “Play and Learn” philosophy which aims to change the mindset of teachers, who traditionally instruct by using powerpoints, and provide them with direct experience of playing different games, having fun and opening themselves up. By allowing teachers experience childhood again, they can manifest and comprehend the sentiments and needs of children who enjoy playing. The teachers then design a structured learning plan based on a tool called “the Play Wheel” for students to play, learn and experiment. This new approach of teacher training creates an effective teaching method that makes learning fun for children and encourages creativity.
