Building on what you learned by listening to the podcast about young people, space and mobility, for this week’s challenge activity, we would like you to provide a visual representation or diagram to depict how young peoples experience of space may be different to that of an adult.
Step 1: Create a visual representation or diagram that conveys how public spaces can resist or repel young people.Be sure to include information on how we can overcome or remove some of these barriers in order to make public spaces accessible and engaging to young people.
Step 2: Post your visual to the discussion below, as well as approximately 275 words explaining how accessible, or inaccessible, public spaces are to young people where you are and how this affects their learning and well-being.If you prefer, you can also include how this can relate to adults rather than (or as well as) young people.
