About the education project
The Deborah’s international educational project is entitled Glück Workshops and it is based on the principle of learning through playing, exploring new objects and ideas/interactions; and mainly focusing on arts, technology and steam education. She believe in creativity as a tool for surviving and thriving in the world today.
When kids are encouraged to express themselves and take risks in creating art, they develop a sense of innovation, sensitivity and creativity that will be important in their adult lives. Creating is also a question of understanding the others, working and exchanging with them: art makes children open their mind and open up to the others.
Deborah Rodrigues work with Art and technology. With Glück Workshops and her explorations in these fields, she brings ideas for activities with children, inviting them to participate in this discovery process with her. Rodrigues work with children in very different parts of the planet, passing on her values and exploring the intersection of learning, interaction and play as a path to strengthen creativity. She is currently involved in a research program on Virtual Reality and childhood with the University of Sheffield in England.
