Studio or/on Stage? From Ecology of Learning to Learning Ecology

This paper is drawn from two creative interventions into the traditionally linear profile of professional education: an initiative of a multidisciplinary team of practitioners in planning, architecture, landscape architecture, transport engineers and academics Create RIGA! and the strategic spatial planning studio in the University of Leuven. The first, which is a number of innovative workshops undertaken in 2011–2012 in Riga, Latvia, introduce an integrated three-dimensional format of continuing professional education, amalgamating lifelong learning, urban action and implementation-aimed outcome. The other – a planning studio (fall semester of 2012) as a part of post-graduate programs in the University of Leuven, Belgium - creatively transforms academic educational process, approaching it by game based learning. Both cases - the program of continuous professional education and the academic course for master students - demonstrate how hybrid forms of professional education, having creativity at the bottom, can serve as open source and co-creation platform for urban landscape.
