The international scientific symposium “In situ, with and through experience. Outdoor pedagogies
in schools of architecture, urban planning and landscape” took place on December 1st 2022 at the
Grenoble School of Architecture. The event was organized by the academic partners of the A school
of Commons project (ASOC). It constitutes the first multiplier event of the ASOC project, specific to
the French cycle (2021-22).
Teachers and researchers, doctoral students, students, associative and operational stakeholders,
from France and Europe (Belgium, Switzerland, Greece, Italy) participated in this symposium.
The speakers represented 23 research laboratories, from 20 schools of architecture (7 of which are
international), 5 institutes of urban planning and geography, 3 landscape schools and one art school,
as well as 4 professional structures.
The results of the A school of Commons (ASOC) project were presented in 3 settings:
a plenary presentation of the A school of Commons (ASOC) project and of the French cycle by
Maxence Bohn (collectif Etc) and Roberta Ghelli (ENSAG – Laboratoire AAU-CRESSON).
A plenary presentation of the in progress inventory of outdoor pedagogies in French schools of
architecture was presented by Théa Manola (ENSAG – Laboratoire AAU-CRESSON) and Robinson
Rossi (ENSAG).
An exhibition on the presentation of the project Architecture School of Commons (ASOC) was organized during

The symposium structured a pedagogical community and gave it visibility.
The reflections will continue!
