 A collective of educators and students engages in immersive art- and design-driven practice to reimagine higher-education and primary-school teaching and learning at, and beyond, the University of Teacher Education. 

Rooted in curiosity, care and attentiveness to diverse histories and voices, the collective offers open-ended impulses that anyone can adapt, question or extend across a growing constellation of educational hubs.

Warm-Up: Pen Joust

 Overview:

A playful activation to spark energy and connection—balancing a pen (“jousting horn”) on your two fingers while gently tipping others’ pens off balance. Emphasize playful engagement and mutual respect.

  1. Set-Up:
    Each person places a pen horizontally across their extended index and little fingers—the “horns” of your jousting pen.

  2. Jousting Play:
    Spread out and, using only your jousting hand, try to nudge others’ pens off their fingers without grabbing or striking.

  3. Victory & Variations:
    The last person still balancing their pen wins. Offer alternative props (e.g., erasers or soft markers) and let anyone opt out or adapt the challenge to honor different comfort levels and abilities.

Cultural & Contextual Sensitivity:
Celebrate playful interaction while respecting personal boundaries. Encourage creative adaptations so everyone can join in on their own terms.
