"Learning To Live Together" (LTLT) has been proposed as one of the four UN pillars of education. Several Indian educationists including Aurobindo, Gandhi, Krishnamurti, and Tagore have emphasized equivalents like 'education of the heart' and founded schools that have pursued these goals, some for more than a century. This paper explores…

In this epistolary essay, I theorize what otherwise-as-marronage can look like for teacher- educators and/or curriculum theorists who are isolated within or bifurcated between harmful institutional divides. I argue that marronage is already creating otherwise worlds and always has--and I propose that embracing marronage can not only help us heal…

Much has been written in recent years about how historical scholarship can be used to shape practice in the classroom. As an historian of the medieval period now working as an history teacher, Dhwani Patel offers a fresh perspective on these debates. During her PGCE year, Patel found herself reflecting on how the lenses and methodologies that…

Present study focused on exploring the impact and consequences of online teaching and learning at the university level from the psychological standpoint using an interpretive questionnaire and a barrage of qualitative literature. An online survey was conducted using Google form to understand the post COVID education from student's point of view.…

In this theoretical paper, I examine the role and potential alterations to uses of social categories in qualitative research. Categories are socially constructed, imbued with power, and include race, class, gender, sexuality, and ability. These categories, although constructs and subject to change, hold durability and are leveraged in much of…

'Learning To Live Together' (LTLT) has been emphasised in SDG 4.7 and the Delors report, with the latter suggesting it to be one of the four education pillars. LTLT has frequently been used as an umbrella-like term leading to difficulties in informing teaching practices and policies. In India, Aurobindo, Dalai Lama, Gandhi, Krishnamurti and Tagore…

For the South Asian diasporic, questions about (be)longing and identity are almost undeniable. Through a personal reflection, I contour these experiences by way of poetic inquiry, specifically interrogating "performing" Canadian-ness (Alvi, 2020) and the meaning of "home" (Badruddoja, 2006) that are a part of the living…

David Hibbert and Zaiba Patel decided to work together after becoming concerned that school history curricula might not enable students to interrogate popular British mythologising about World War II. Building on these pre-existing concerns, their collaboration with the historian Yasmin Khan yielded an Interpretations enquiry which asked students…

In this paper, we use the lens of embodied language cognition and intersemiosis to argue for the importance of developing creative approaches to language work in classroom settings and we cite as an example some activities from a workshop that was developed for modern foreign languages (MFL) trainee teachers in London…

Discipline in the higher education classroom is a widely debated phenomenon, especially since it is defined interchangeably with classroom management, which is pertinent to schooling in non-adult institutions. This research aimed to apply the principles of discipline in a higher education context to study the impact of attitude and behaviour on…

Teaching students to think about white settlers' and racialized non-black people's complicity in settler colonial violence can still be an instance of settler-centric pedagogy underlined by the trope of the 'dying Indian'. Through reflecting on my teaching of a well-circulated article by a racialized scholar, I discuss how, despite my intentions,…

The purpose of this paper was to briefly address the need for a conceptual framework for informatics and develop a preliminary conceptual framework. The review of the literature on informatics and the approaches to a conceptual framework tend to be linked to discussion concerning designing curriculum rather than attaining a better understanding of…

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning (LGBTQ+) young people are subject to high rates of sexual violence globally, significantly impacting their lives and psychological wellbeing. However, service use for sexual violence support is low for LGBTQ+ groups and there is no current research exploring LGBTQ+ young peoples'…

This study highlights the importance of providing a global education so that students are prepared for and aware of the wider world. The study explored the lived experiences of Adult Cross-Cultural Kids within education, and their cross-cultural perspectives on how the intersectionality of race, skin colour and class impacts life in and out of…

Today the hope for education goes well beyond a reductionist and modernist approach of knowledge transfer. This research suggests that the experience of being immersed in natural environments can lead to embodied ways of learning and being beyond the Anthropocene and can shape children's innate relationship with nature. We bring together two…
