Case Study 2: Teaching a PDC Session
IntroductionThe focus of this case study is to apply the SADIM design process to the preparation and teaching of a session on a Permaculture Design Course (PDC).
ReflectionThis design enabled me to learn how to apply the design process to a non-land based design, and fulfilled the multiple function of getting a PDC session planned and taught. This was another design early on in my portfolio journey, and i was still learning much about how to apply the principles and ethics, and how to use design tools effectively.
I also went through several tweaks of the design as I taught this session over three PDCs, learning and improving each time, and delivering a better quality session each time. I am grateful to my tutors Hannah and Marina for being clients, encouragement and constructive feedback on the session. It also enabled me to introduce to my clients (the course attendees) how to mind-map and use Open Space technology to run aspects of a workshop. |
