Research Abstract

The purpose of the workshop, characterized as a method of experiential participatory learning, is to "get loose from fetters" unconsciously. So we need a type of workshop, called, an " unlearning workshop," to liberate from the narrowed visions built up through the modern industrialized life. The theories underlying the unlearning workshop are situated learning (Lave and Wenger, 1991) and Vygotskian socio-cultural leaning theories. We set up the elemental unit of analysis for workshop activities, named "F2LO," constituting of one Facilitator, two Learners, and one Object. We developed a video analysis tool for visualizing transformations and interactions of F2LOs, in order to get rich reflections through the VCR records of a workshop.
