Subject: [MTC Global] Meet the world's first professor of play
C
ambridge University has appointed the world's first ever professor of play, Paul Ramchandani. A researcher who has spent the last 15 years leading the child and adolescent mental health research unit at Imperial College London, Ramchandani will take up the new role in early 2018. The position is funded through a £4m grant supporting the Centre for Research on Play in Education, Development and Learning (Pedal) from the Lego Foundation, the charitable arm of the children's toy company.
As professor of play, Ramchandani will explore how play can support education, promote emotional wellbeing, and equip children with skills in problem-solving, team-work and self control through play-based teaching. These approaches will be underpinned by research into measuring playfulness and understanding the brain processes involved.
