This workshop is sponsored by The American University of Paris and its Teaching and Learning Center. It is a closed event.

The field of fashion education has expanded significantly over the past years. Yet, its dimensions, practices, methods and relevance have seen little public exchange or debate. Learning and Teaching Fashion: Challenges, Chances and Co-operations is an exploratory and participatory workshop, an opportunity to reflect, develop, meet and collaborate. The following questions will guide the day:

• How do we best learn and teach fashion today and in the future?
• Which ideas of fashion, what role perceptions and job profiles do we currently hold and train for? 鈥� What should students of fashion be able to do, what should they know, experience and be?
• What are relevant outcomes, contents and methods in learning and teaching fashion?
• What role do fashion educators play in a constantly changing field?
