The poster design reflects the experimental energy which occurred during the course, and speaks to radical pedagogy and the counterculture spirit of the 1960's. The content was printed, cut out and arranged onto the bed of a scanner. The pieces were then moved as scanning occurred.
We also explored the idea of a portable experimental teaching kit, which might contain an informational 24x36 poster, an interactive create-your-classroom-manifesto poster, and a deck of cards which would act as an design thinking card game framed around experimental pedagogy .
The experimental teaching kit is being designed with the same aesthetics as the poster and are currently still being prototyped and tested.

What’s a Skiffle?
The name of § was influenced by the music genre, Skiffle. Familiar to few, Skiffle music is often played using improvised spirit and music instruments alike. When happening upon the word and musical world of Skiffle, Marshall felt a great kinship between the essence of Skiffle and her own design processes which often involve improvising, playing and exploring different mediums and techniques.
