I first found out Beyond Bits and Atoms(BBA) at Teachers College from a friend of mine. Students have to attend both a theory-oriented class and a practice-focused lab.
During the whole semester, we explore constructivism, constructionism, and critical pedagogy, as well as embodied and situated cognition, the role of media and tools, representations and models in learning, and theories of technology design.
Some of my classmates are graphic designers, teachers and even our TA has a background in mechanical engineerging. It's so delighted to be connectted with people from diffient backgrounds and share unique perspectives.
