The programme themed around "wind”. By exploring the relationship between wind and nature, students understood the characteristics and applications of wind, and designed wearable devices that themed around wind. Once worn, the device allowed users to experience the sensation of wind and gain a deeper understanding of their relationship with nature.
At the beginning of the class, students engaged in various wind-related movement and games, utilizing different senses to express the forms of wind, encouraging them to express ideas through less commonly used senses, thereby enhancing sensory acuity and creativity. Next, students learnt how to apply wind in different device designs, exploring the possibilities of wind with different senses, and started conceptualizing their final product, practicing basic creative ideas.
Ultimately, students worked in groups to bring imagination to life by creating wearable devices. During the creative process, students used materials of different textures and completed their work after several testing. In the final class of the course, parents were invited to attend a sharing session where students shared their creative journey, therefore, deepening their learning outcomes.
