Annotation: The article examines the main aspects of the participation of senior schoolchildren and students of secondary vocational education in the development of the project of the future museum and educational space “Mechanical Workshops” based on the T. F. Gorbachev Kuzbass State Technical University. The authors consider participatory design as an activity that leads to the emergence of the author’s action of senior schoolchildren and students of secondary vocational education regarding the achievement of the goal — a common search for ways to implement the plan, based on which participatory design is one of the effective pedagogical tools aimed at the formation of the subject position of students. As part of the participatory work on the project, a ramified set of methods and ways to achieve educational goals and objectives was used, part of which is a facilitation session. Facilitation as a method of participatory design creates an atmosphere of trust, which contributes to the construction of strong connections between the participants of the session, while stimulating unconventional thinking and creativity of each participant. The facilitation session is aimed at forming a horizontal structure of work on the project through agreed group interests using such categories as communication, fruitfulness, profitability, productivity, effectiveness. The designated categories allow increasing the speed and efficiency of the processes of educating through upbringing and upbringing through educating, based on the recognition of the subjectivity of the participants in the designated processes through the personal significance of what is happening for themselves. All stages of a targeted facilitation session — from setting genuine, real goals through approval, acceptance and trust to empathic understanding are aimed, first of all, at updating the subjective position.
