Site-Specific Pedagogy Map

Paper presentation of 'The Site-Specific Pedagogy Map', part of a performance pedagogy toolkit I made during a UAL Educational Enhancement Sabbatical 2023/24. The toolkit takes the form of a mini-zine and broadsheet fold out map.

Performance in this context is engaged as a way of encountering, interacting and thinking and making with the world, and not as a discipline to be taught.

The intention is to work towards a non-hierarchical pedagogy, building on Jane’s Collin’s brilliant work in this area. In this configuration, the tools, exercises and frameworks can be used by any discipline including performers, designers, theatre makers, painters, sculptors, sound artists and so on. Many of the tasks and exercises have suggestions for adaptations from these perspectives.
