We offer bespoke advice to individual course, training or degree coordinators. This may be in the academic world, or involve capacity development of professionals. We supervise and mentor master students and professionals.

TRAINING

We offer open access teacher training geared towards coordinators of courses, training sessions or degrees via our Audio Podcast ‘How to design a resilient curriculum’.

RESOURCES

Discover our unique philosophy and methodology in our Design angles. They are reflected in our Audio Podcast, publications and events.

NEWSFLASH

We just finished a re-design studio with a client that works in the synergies of capacity development and academia, working on a 5 week post-graduate course for professionals.

The problem of this client? Overload in the curriculum and schedule, it’s simply too much! Packed. Our approach is a bespoke advice using our unique finite methodology and philosophy for effective and resilient curriculum design. This will lead to teaching with clarity. In other words: prioritize and do less, so that professionals understand more. 

Curious about our design studio? Go directly to our re-design studio here.

^{“Along the way, Tikvah advised and equipped me how to simplify the course, by doing less actually, so that participants learn more – and it actually set free significant new budget.”}

Our Studio started a collaboration with the Chilean Architect Cazú Zegers who has shared a few hand drawn sketches from her renowned projects to give life to the covers of our Audio Podcast ‘How to design an effective and resilient curriculum’. The collaboration is infused with our shared passion for good educational design, and for our students. Cazú has a beautiful phrase when she finishes her classes or speeches to young students:

^{“It is essential that the vocation of the architect can be accompanied by what he or she is passionate about, be it nature, sports, culture, the community, etc. At Cazú Zegers Arquitectura we believe that if you combine your vocation and passion you will be able to find your destination. ⁠This reflection arises from the experience of Cazú Zegers where her architecture has been the product of the following equation:⁠ Vocation + Passion = Destination .”}

You will find her hand drawn schetches appearing incrementally as new episodes release. A common theme is the landscape. The ‘gesture figure form’ methodology is very much related to the territory and sometimes comes from the territory. “The territory is to America, as the monuments are to Europe,” says Cazú. To learn about Cazu Zegers’ work please visit: www.cazuzegers.com. Find her thesis on the territory and Instagram. Or listen to a Podcast interview with her on Floornature.
