“Adele Bates gives us an insight into being locked in a room full of teenagers and the surprising amount of engagement that grew when questions they actually want to know were answered. Bates shows us the amount of interest teenagers can have when it comes to learning despite their negative stereotypes. Adele’s unique outlook on education and youths, challenges us to see children -our future- as a vast amount of knowledge and opportunity rather than burdens or misfits.”
Pecha Kucha is a succinct presentation style: 20 images x 20 seconds each.
It was devised by Klein Dytham Architecture and has become a global sharing.
Pecha Kucha is Japanese, and roughly translates as ‘chit chat.’
