Produktbeschreibung
This book draws together theories, research, and practice on knowledges and pedagogies of place across educational settings.

Using empirical research on learning across education systems, each chapter highlights different concepts of place in various contexts such as environments, understandings of place like those experienced by communities and opportunities for embedding place in learning. Chapters are co-constructed by authors working collaboratively across different contexts, tackling key themes such as justice, mobilities, changes, and sustainability, through place.

The book indicates how educators can apply creative approaches to teaching within, through and about place in education and will therefore be of relevance to a wider range of academics, teachers and practitioners working in early years settings, schools, universities and other educational context.

Rezensionen
"This diverse, thought-provoking and carefully curated collection provides a significant series of insights into the sheer diversity of ways in which place can be conceptualised in educational settings. It examines the active role of land and landscapes, humans and nonhumans, understood through diverse theoretical frameworks. Importantly, chapters highlight both everyday, emotional and embodied engagements with places as much as the ways in which power and politics may be at play in learning spaces. Drawing on diverse case studies from around the world, the book as a whole also extends beyond the more 'familiar' settings in which place might be considered - such as outdoor learning - to attend to issues such as technology, language and media. A key strength of the book is in the collaborative approach to writing chapters - across different contexts and forms of expertise - in a way that foregrounds truly diverse encounters with place that should be generative for scholars, educators, policy-makers and practitioners looking for inspiration as to the many ways in which place matters to, and in, education settings."
