Munday, Ian – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2014
A common move in the study of creativity and performativity is to present the former as an antidote to the latter. Might we, therefore, see work on creativity in education as heralding an era of post-performativity?

Reveley, James – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2015
Educational theorists may be right to suggest that providing mindfulness training in schools can challenge oppressive pedagogies and overcome Western dualism.
