#LeGOMAKE
In October/November of 2015, Lotts vistied roughly 20 university libraries to facilitate Lego Play workshops with Library Faculty & Staff. These workshops look at the ideas of teamwork, active learning, play, and pop-up making spaces within academic libraries. Throughout this workshop individuals will use Lego® bricks to solve real world problems faced in academic libraries. I was introduced to the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology at the “i2c2, Innovation, Inspiration, and Creativity” conference in Manchester, UK in 2014. Lego states, LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® methodology is “based on research which shows that this kind of hands-on, minds-on learning produces a deeper, more meaningful understanding of the world and its possibilities”.
