RoundView – a fresh way to think about sustainability

This is a prototype, and we are looking to develop this into a learning resource that can slot into libraries, museums and visitors’ centres. We would love your feedback!

Use this link to give us feedback, and to download a certificate that you can print out, fill in and pop on the fridge.

If you enjoyed solving the timeline of the Earth, you may want to try it out as a jigsaw puzzle. There are 200 piece and 1000 piece puzzles for sale in the Manchester Museum gift shop.

All sales support the Manchester Museum, and all surplus supports the development of the RoundView!

Talking about sustainability can feel overwhelming, and discourage people from taking action.

RoundView gives us a shared compass to navigate towards a positive, sustainable future.

This kiosk has a series of hands-on puzzles that lead us on a learning journey.

Each puzzle asks a key question, and can be played at different levels dependent on the learner.

For young learners, building the puzzle together gives a chance to ask what they see in the pieces and the final image. We recommend combining the two bags (question and answer bag).

For older learners, you can vary the degree of challenge by spending longer on the question pieces before bringing out the answer frame, and asking – what does each puzzle teach us about people and nature?

There is a word search in the third drawer – feel free to take one!

RoundView has been tested in schools, libraries, museums, businesses, colleges and landscape-scale partnerships.

Creative, hands-on learning tools combine art, science and poetry to make it easy for everyone to learn and engage.

People of all ages are empowered to embed environmental sustainability in their decision-making at home, school, work and in their communities.

At least 150,000 people have already engaged with RoundView, and we are excited to share this learning with new audiences.
