Direct linkNorefalk, Christian; Papastephanou, Marianna – Theory and Research in Education, 2023
This article investigates whether there is any place for the school of thought that is known as analytic philosophy of education in the aftermath of postmodernism, and whether analytic philosophy of education can be treated as a 'method', among other alternative 'methods', that can be applied regardless of what kind of '-ism' or ideology one…

Khine, Myint Swe, Ed. – Routledge Research in Education, 2023
Drawing on the theories and philosophies of Deleuze and Guattari, this edited collection explores the concept of rhizomatic learning and consolidates recent explorations in theory building and multidisciplinary research to identify new directions in the field. Knowledge transfer is no longer a fixed process. Rhizomatic learning posits that…

Markula, Pirkko – Quest, 2023
Skill learning is considered an essential component of physical education, dance, and sport and consequently, there is an existing body of literature with concepts to be applied to teaching and coaching practices. However, research into skill learning in fitness is largely absent. In this article, I provide a poststructuralist informed approach to…

Courtland, Darcy – Prospects, 2022
Questioning what knowledge is of most worth in the early weeks of North America's COVID-19 crisis, this article begins to reimagine the possibilities of curriculum in such unprecedented times. It reflects on the author's experiences as a doctoral student to unveil the capacity of a curriculum that emphasizes compassion, community, and relational…

Gravett, Karen; Kinchin, Ian – Teaching in Higher Education, 2020
This article proposes a rethinking of the contested concept of teaching excellence within higher education. In order to do, so we engage posthumanist theory to reconsider teaching excellence from a new perspective that shifts the gaze beyond the measured individual to explore our intra-actions within a wider context. Taking Skelton's original…

Download full textDennis, Jeremy – Online Submission, 2019
In interdisciplinary education, metaphors often provide the epistemological clarity that is lacking in our definitions and theories of interdisciplinarity. The problem is that ineffective and unsubstantiated metaphors proliferate. We lack a root metaphor or shared world view of interdisciplinarity. Is it time that we move away from thinking in…

Maree, Jacobus G. – Early Child Development and Care, 2021
While much has been written on the influence of Erik Erikson's contributions to education, little has been said about his place in terms of his contribution to the general theoretical notion of what it means to be a human being. This article aims to broaden current reflections on Erikson's position in the spectrum of work done on human development…

Blom, Rob; Lu, Chunlei – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2016
In cultivating a Western inclination toward Eastern wisdom, it is important to seek the foundations that sustain traditional practices toward such end. In a secularised and modern world view, the tendency has been to extract and abstract foundational practices such as mindfulness meditation and contemplation within an objectivist or scientistic…

van der Walt, Johannes L. – Bulgarian Comparative Education Society, 2017
This paper is a sequel to the keynote address at the 2017 BCES Conference. The keynote address concluded with the thought that some educationists respond intuitively and spontaneously to neoliberalism and its impact on education whereas others reject neoliberalist precepts and their pedagogical implications on definite principled grounds. This…

Gall, David – International Journal of Art & Design Education, 2019
Art education in the USA has made great progress toward greater inclusiveness and is generally a force against resurgent fascism. Nevertheless, higher art education theory is dominated by Euro-Western philosophical legacies, encumbered by dualism, which impede art education's emancipative democratising potential. Recent debate about the…

Horsthemke, Kai – European Educational Research Journal, 2019
The assumptions underlying this contribution are, first, that educational research, like research in other fields, is expected to yield knowledge. This is rather uncontroversial. It is only when it comes to the definition of knowledge, the kinds of knowledge sought and to questions as to whose knowledge counts, that the debate characteristically…

Deng, Zongyi – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2018
Using the 'medical' framework (symptoms, diagnosis and prescription) in Schwab's the Practical 1 article, I analyze the current state of contemporary curriculum theorizing as a result of the reconceptualist movement. I argue that curriculum theorizing is in serious crisis due to the loss of the original subject of curriculum studies--practice and…

What is the future of Philosophy of education? Or as many of scholars and thinkers in this final 'future-focused' collective piece from the philosophy of education in a new key Series put it, what are the futures--plural and multiple--of the intersections of 'philosophy' and 'education?' What is 'Philosophy'; and what is 'Education', and what role…

Nakagawa, Yoshifumi; Payne, Phillip G. – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2019
The always vexed relationships between philosophy, theory, methodology, empirical work and their representations and legitimations have been thrown into chaos with the belated acknowledgement of the Anthropocene. Unsurprisingly, traditional Western thought may have been complicit, given its underlying anthropocentric assumptions and humanist…

Payne, Phillip G. – Journal of Environmental Education, 2019
"The Journal of Environmental Education" ("JEE") has produced and circulated different forms of knowledge for 50 years, mostly for a North American readership and, most recently, a globally-extended English-speaking audience. A critical theory of theory in environmental education (EE) and its research (EER) is needed in looking…
