The Studio Experience & Self-Organized Learning - A Paper by Sebastian Fiedler
Sebastian received his M.Ed. in our department. In the Spring of 1999 he wrote this paper as part of an independent research project with Dr. Michael Orey. It articulates opportunities and challenges for self-organized learning in a studio model and the different demands that it places on both students and faculty. It also describes the theoretical basis for the need for reflective conversations on which the web-based EDIT 6190 contracts are based. This is a "must read" for anyone in the studio.
