Is your heart beating for the future of education? Then mark the date of this active two-day course in your agenda. How do sensory experiences invite a more embodied intelligence? How do you develop a sensitive attitude towards each other and the world? Zintuin offers a refreshing look at education from a musical-artistic perspective. Zintuin is the Flemish contribution to the Erasmus+ project SenseSquared in collaboration with 6 European partners. The course will take place on 13 & 14 October. More info soon via our website.

Programme

This Zintuin introduction course invites you to a different and promising perspective on education. Through generic exercises, we’ll actively explore how ‘the temporal arts’ – with emphasis on music – open an inviting perspective on education. The ideas presented show how education can be embedded in a more consistent view of what it means to be human in a changing world.
