This study explored the pedagogical implications of integrating creative dance into fifth-grade students' poetry reading and writing within the context of an educational design research project. Two teaching designs were developed and implemented by a researcher, a dance teaching artist, and two primary school teachers during two research cycles…

This paper explores the emotional experiences of three first-year Latinx teachers in Dual Language Bilingual Education (DLBE) programs. Drawing on interviews completed over the course of a year-long critical ethnography with collaborative elements, I created a series of transcription poems highlighting salient emotions. Applying feminist theories…

The main purpose of this article is to question and finally reject the tendency to see philosophy and literature (especially poetry) as essentially distinct forms of language, a tendency which sometimes extends to regarding them as mutually exclusive and to be understood as in some way in opposition to each other. The idea of that opposition is…

In this article, we demonstrate how I poems, part of the Listening Guide method, can help researchers to better understand the multiple voices that might comprise a student's mathematical identity. We provide an analysis of one student's interview as an example of this method. We argue that the use of the Listening Guide method illuminates the…

In this article I provide a preliminary review of Radford's ideas about the poetic role of theory and his work on moments of poesis in terms of its appeal and usefulness in research contexts. In light of the mathematics education community's call for more attention to be given to the aesthetic elements of learning mathematics, I conclude that…

This article underscores the importance of Canto 7 in the design of Part One as well as its significance in the overall architecture of Alonso de Ercilla's "La Araucana" (1569, 1578, 1589). During his depiction of Concepción's destruction, Ercilla collapses the dichotomies established in the poem's opening cantos between the masculine…

It is shown that a particular class of pauses taken in both read and composed speech obey allometric laws such that mean pause length predicts body size. The pauses in this class have durations that roughly span 250 ms to 1,000 ms and are taken to mark grammatical and prosodic boundaries. A theory of pause allometry is developed based on the…

Purpose: This study aims to explore how youth poets wrote in a community of practice and how their out-of-school poetry writing contributed toward developing disciplinary literacy. Design/methodology/approach: In this qualitative case study, the authors studied youth's writing by drafting narrative field notes, collecting student writing and…

In this article, the authors experiment with data-ing as a methodology, and wonder how three researchers?--?two in Oslo (Norway) and one in Melbourne (Australia)?--?can come closer to-with the research material by following and buggy-walking a young wayfarer in urban spaces and places. The ideas of not knowing and experimenting, making-with urban…

In this paper, the authors explore the conditions that support belonging in remote VU Block Model® teaching. They examine the role of arts-based, embodied pedagogy in promoting engagement in learning, connection between students, and between students and teachers, and in an environment in which vulnerability and risk-taking in learning is valued.…

In this article, we chronicle the development and implementation of a multilingual drama workshop for teacher candidates within the framework of a course titled "Supporting English Language Learners," as part of the Master of Teaching Program at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. This course takes a decidedly critical…

To identify expert poets' cognitive processes as they compose poetry, we asked 10 expert poets and 10 novice writers of poetry to think aloud as they composed a poem. Compared to the novices, expert poets revealed an associative playfulness and surrendering of consciousness, similar to that shown in research on general creativity in domains such…

In this article, we present a set of poems that have helped us to come to know teaching in particular ways. We argue that the artistic medium of poetry can provide unique and important insights into what it is like to live through classroom moments. Using connoisseurship as our mode of inquiry, we share these poems, our interpretations of these…

This essay explores the creativity and learning that can take place when students are given the opportunity to go beyond the GCSE set poems and create their own poetry anthologies. I argue that in the process of creating a poetry anthology, students are encouraged to engage on a deeper and more personal level with poetry. I suggest that when…

Using games to teach is an interesting and worthwhile practice; however, the couplet game has not been described before. In this study, first-year students played a couplet game with their teacher at the end of the course. Each student was asked to summarize and write individual opinions on human geography in one keyword; then, the teacher wrote…
