Todd, Sharon – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2021
This paper explores how touch is key to understanding education--not as an achievement or an instrument of acquisition, but as a process through which one becomes a subject capable of both living and leading a life that matters for ourselves and others.

Joff P. N. Bradley – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2024
In this experimental piece of writing I want to think about the pedagogy of contact and the plight of the hikikomori or social recluse in Japan. I am interested in exploring how the hikikomori practices a kind of contactlessness or what I will call a deadly ipseity of desire. What does it mean to resist contact, to be without contact, to be…

M.; Murphy, Clodagh M.; Daly, Eileen – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022

Reimer, Nils Karl; Hughes, Joanne; Blaylock, Danielle; Donnelly, Caitlin; Wölfer, Ralf; Hewstone, Miles – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Past research has shown that intergroup contact can be a promising intervention to improve intergroup relations and that contact-based interventions might be most effective during adolescence. In postconflict Northern Ireland, widespread residential segregation and a largely separate school system limit opportunities for intergroup contact between…

We examine potential gender and class-level differences in two forms of student-parent contact among undergraduates: parental academic involvement and student-to-parent communication.
