The PLAYground is a transmedia learning platform for the curation, creation and circulation of user-generated activities that encourages co-learning among adults and youth.

It is designed to cultivate and promote learning activities through “challenges”. A challenge creatively synthesizes a “take action”, a hands-on learning activity that can easily integrate across various disciplines, interests and ages.

Playing is not always about just solving a

specific problem. How do you experiment in your everyday life? What are some of

your favorite ways of playing that use

experimentation?

Why Play?

For problem-solving, play can be a really useful way to find and test new ideas. Nathan Sawaya is a “Brick Artist” who played with Legos as a child, but it wasn’t until after college that he used Legos to create meaningful art pieces. In talking about his process he said, “I sketch out almost all my projects. I like to have an idea of what the finished sculpture will look like before I start building.”

The New Media Literacy, PLAY, is

the ability to experiment with

your surroundings

toward a form of problem-solving.

People PLAY in all kind of places for all kinds of reasons. Take action and show through a photo or video how you play and what it means to you.
