Curriculum Comedy Symposium | Day 1 – Parity Jour Fixe Special

This three-day symposium Curriculum Comedy at the Department of Architecture takes the form of a play and sets the stage for conversations about the architecture curriculum. We ask, how do we learn and work together? What are the sources of our Canon, and who does it take into account? What knowledge and experiences are we missing?
Three acts with lectures, workshops, and round tables deal with the learning/unlearning of gender norms and unreflected biases in architecture; work cultures and well-being; and equitable pedagogies in humorous and serious ways.
The symposium is a collaboration with Parity Jour Fixe.

Curriculum Comedy is organized by Meike Schalk (KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm/Anna Boyksen Fellow at TUM-Institute for Advanced Study) together with SOFT – School of Transformation (TUM). It is financed by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the Free State of Bavaria under the Excellence Strategy of the Federal Government and the Länder, as well as by the Technical University of Munich – Institute for Advanced Study, and by the Diversity Office of TUM School of Engineering and Design.
