Collaboration depicted as a kaleidoscope: different contributions refract and recombine to create shared meaning

‘This image shows collaboration as a kaleidoscope: different contributions refract and recombine to create shared meaning. This research explores children’s outdoor digital play and how it shapes relationships with nature. At the centre, a shifting lens gathers contributions into one shared pattern, suggesting inquiry is hands on, evolving and continually shaped by people, tools and the environment.’
