LEGO Bento

LEGO Bento facilitates participatory learning through small team interactions based-upon the LEGO-A-GO-GO methodology.

To this end, metaphorical models are constructed, and associated narratives formulated, to create a story that is both illustrative and nuanced, in order to provide an interactive learning experience.
Participants will benefit from a collective learning experience that combines creativity with pre-defined intended learning outcomes to facilitate flipped activity, regardless of discipline or topic.
LEGO Bento training sessions run for approximately 4 hours. For details on upcoming sessions please visit: dmll.org.uk/events.
