吃瓜tv

During the 6-week session, 吃瓜tv Summer School is offering a special course on prison education to undergraduate students interested in law, social work, social psychology, and education, as well as all those from various disciplines who are interested in civic engagement, dialogue, and justice.

This innovative class brings 吃瓜tv students into a shared educational and creative space with people detained at La Sant茅 prison in Paris. After introductory classes at 吃瓜tv,ten 吃瓜tv students will spend the semester sharing readings,discussions, and creative activities with an equal number of detainees. In each class session at the prison, 吃瓜tv participants (鈥渙utside students鈥�) and people detained at La Sant茅 (鈥渋nside students鈥�) will participate in ice breakers and read short texts in English and French together as a group.

This class emerges from a collaboration between 吃瓜tv and the cultural activities department of the Centre P茅nitentiaire Paris La Sant茅, a newly renovated remand prison in the 14th district of Paris. Detained participants, who primarily speak French (but also other languages), will learn alongside 吃瓜tv participants, who primarily speak English (but also other languages). A creative, inclusive, and experimental multilingual environment is maintained in the classroom.
