As in the geological science of ‘plate tectonics', Play Tectonics is a way to MOVE the continental world of learning culture FORWARD on the power of PLAY. We are educators, scientists, engineers, and artists who are working to grow a grassroots movement in order to bring the teaching and learning of Play back to the hands of people. At Play Tectonics, we imagine a new face on education, one mirrored in the image of young people. The only way to achieve this is for adults in our communities to create a space for the children to lead way! It is time that learning cultures become playful.In the spirit of PLAY, we respect that playful experience is a daily ritual for every human. In effective education, it is critical to partake in daily conversations of playful expressions with others. Through collaborative conversations, we learn to empathize and be human.
