A12 - Summary
We embark on a sensory exploration of our surroundings. This course, rooted in Roehr's multisensory approach, spans from hand sketching to employing digital tools, aiming to amplify multi-sensorial literacy. The curriculum emphasizes quick visual sketching before transitioning to digital mediums to document touch, taste, sound, and smell experiences. Assignments demand active participation, weekly blog entries, and the flexibility to represent experiences in various formats—from written word to audio recordings.
