“Learning Experience Design” with Anita Silva

Ever wondered how to empower young people by playing “spin the bottle” with time-traveling robots? And no, LXD is not an awareness enhancing drug, but a great technique to design deep learning experiences …

Our guest Anita Silva is a trainer, youth worker, and consultant from Portugal, with a specialisation in creativity and innovation. She uses Learning Experience Design (LXD): a process of creating vibrant, engaging, and meaningful learning experiences adapted to the needs and preferences of young people, where the learner is at the core of the journey and the path is defined by learning goals.

In our new episode, Anita shares her insights and experiences with this technique and gives tips and tricks for educators and youth workers who want to try it out for themselves to improve the quality and impact of their work.
