Abstract
In informal learning contexts embodied social experiences have long been seen as
valuable for enlivening learners’ interest and engagement with abstract topics. However much of this excellent work is installed in museums which can make it less accessible to the desired wider audiences for both geographic and financial reasons.
Furthermore, compared to the natural sciences, understanding how to foster public
engagement with social science topics is much less developed. This project proposes
to address this challenge by designing, installing, and evaluating interventions in public spaces that provide embodied experiences aiming to bring social psychology topics to life. Feedback is particularly sought in relation to evaluating and analysing the
possible learning experiences of those that interact with or witness the installations.
