Opis

Curriculum Intertext addresses the spaces between between disciplines, between different theoretical perspectives, and between getting there/being there and living in current curricular discourse and practice. It is an invitation to curricular scholars to be at home in displacement, to imagine the possibilities of curricular languages that open onto meadowland spaces and mountain terrain spaces, and borderland spaces and in-between coulee spaces. It attends to the physicality and specificity of place and to the ambiguity of the many locations of an evolving curricular discourse. This book articulates the needs of graduate students and instructors in curriculum courses to gain a better understanding of current thinking and research regarding place, language, and pedagogy. Curriculum Intertext encourages each of us to venture across and between, into new lines and spaces, and to search for the poetic, the narrative, and other vital signifiers of curriculum theory, praxis, and research."

Recenzje

"Playing at the edges of disciplinary and textual boundaries, Erika Hasebe-Ludt and Wanda Hurren conjoin as well as juxtapose contributors' prose, poetry, visual art, and photography. They thus conjure alchemic spaces where language, pedagogy, and place connect the textures of lived experience and reveal the intersubjectivity inherent in curriculum theorizing, researching, and teaching. 'Curriculum Intertext' invokes readers to be aware of their participation in these constructions of meaning. The promise of this timely book is that such awareness might enable us to decalcify solidified spaces between, across, and within the interstices of curriculum as well as social and cultural difference." (Janet L. Miller, Professor, Teachers College, Columbia University)
"This book is an extremely important curriculum text and in-tertext that celebrates Canadian curriculum scholarship with the rich scholarly and artistic discourse of living pedagogy or currere. It is an amazing interpretation and interrogation of a third space, a hybrid space, and a diasporic space of tension between and midst representational and nonrepresentational interplays of performances as intertexts. The contributors lean into Aokian slopes of metonymic writing that evokes a messy text, a middle space of curriculum, the place for a slash, and the persistence of in/stability. It is a text and intertext destined to become a rich resource for curriculum scholars and educators grappling with translating the spaces between curriculum-as-plan and curriculum-as-lived. 'Curriculum Intertext: Place/Language/ Pedagogy' exemplifies the foundations and non-foundations of Aoki's living pedagogy and is a 'must read' for those interested in experiencing interplays of knowing seldom found in tradi-tional curriculum texts. It is a remarkable book that will undoubtedly make a significant contribution to curriculum scholarship not only in Canada, but internationally. Curriculum scholarship in Canada is an exciting place/language/pedagogy!" (Rita L. Irwin, Professor and Head, Department of Curriculum Studies, Faculty of Education, University of British Columbia; President, Canadian Association of Curriculum Studies (CACS))
