This study aims to contribute to the ongoing scholarly conversation about education through the lenses of the German philosophy of "Bildung" and the American philosophy of pragmatism. More concretely, in this article, the two philosophies are represented by the traditions of critical-constructive "Didaktik," based on Wolfgang…

The praxis article is devoted to the study of educational cartoon as an interactive method of teaching legal disciplines. The purpose of the article is to argue the usefulness of this methodology for the educational process (e.g., the development of critical thinking, increasing the activity of students when discussing educational tasks on the…

Is the novel a category of knowledge that merits serious study? Even if the novel has shed the stigma of being mindless entertainment, one might easily assume that reading a novel is not "studying," unless one reads closely and carefully, preferably from a scholarly edition or for a scholarly purpose. "Novel Pedagogy" explores…

Play, which is both a context and process for children's learning, has become a pivotal pedagogical component in global early childhood education. The uptake of intentional teaching has contributed to the shift in understandings of play, from viewing play as a means of recreation and entertainment to a more socio-cultural perspective that…

The article focuses on Latin American critical pedagogy, which is inevitably associated with the Brazilian educator and philosopher Paulo Freire -- a staunch advocate of critical pedagogy and the person who is often seen as the founder of critical pedagogy. Freire's contribution to this field is, of course, beyond question, this article describes…

Since the 1970s, the concepts of "lifeworld" and "everyday life" have been part of the discourse of social pedagogy and social and educational work in general. Xavier Úcar's objective in this article is to generate and communicate socio-pedagogical knowledge that helps social pedagogues to build socio-educational relationships…

Terence Mills introduces us to Keynsian probability and discusses its implications for teaching probability. The author considers it unlikely that Keynes's theory would replace how we teach probability, but argues that it may make us think more deeply about the use of terms such as chance and probability when used in our lessons.

The introduction of statistical concepts into school curricula in Australia and New Zealand in the early 1990s initiated an ongoing research program into the learning and teaching of statistics and probability in both countries. This paper reviews the contribution of Australian and New Zealand researchers to building statistical literacy at…

In this arts-informed inquiry, I examine Canadian sex educators' embodied sense-making of comprehensive sexual health education (CSHE). I seek to understand how educators use their bodies to negotiate contested pedagogical terrain in order to gain insights into conflicting patterns observed in the literature, as well as to challenge how educators'…

"Cuerpo-territorio" is a method stemming from Latin American geography, which recognizes the centrality of situated and embodied experiences as a form of knowing. We engaged with this method in the classroom to understand how students through their embodied and situated experiences had absorbed a post-development geographic course…

Using existing research on digital citizenship education (DCE), postdigital theory, and "The New Zealand Curriculum (NZC)," this article indicates how schools and teachers can make links between curriculum and a postdigital interpretation of DCE. Although the view of DCE as being cross-curricular presents opportunities to integrate DCE…

This reflective piece seeks to shed light on the numerous contributions of Diane Larsen-Freeman to theory construction, applied linguistics, and language education by drawing parallels and insights from the FIFA 2022 Qatar World Cup Final. Looking at the multitude of factors that affect both soccer games and language development research,…

In this article, I think with trains to reflect about education, its rhythms, trajectories, and the possibilities that "attentive looking through windows" can afford us in moving toward just futures. Using two of Alfonsina Storni's poems, the yellow train of "Cien años de soledad" as well as educational philosophy, I argue that…

Within the framework of the reemergence of the theme of antifascism in contemporary educational theory, this paper raises the question of whether antifascism may be considered as a genuinely educational concept. Moreover, it investigates whether and to what extent the idea of antifascist education should remain anchored to an explicit reference to…

I here read the Iranian film "Hit the Road" through the eyes of the French philosopher Alain Badiou. In doing so, I hope to illuminate the triadic link between cinema, philosophy and "paideia" (ethical-political education). To explore, I adopt a philosophical methodology with the double ambition to reveal the latent pedagogies…
