Description

Looking at the bubbles and echo chambers we create in our own world. How does this affect our learning? How does it affect perceptions? What can we stand to achieve? And what can we stand to lose? From planning to learn, learning and using languages, we all create our own language bubbles. Let’s think about them together.
