Description
Book SynopsisThis accessible and timely edited volume is at once provocative and original in shedding new light on the roles of science and arts creativities for ‘future-making education’. An international set of expert authors grapple with innovative ways of thinking about the complex, textured and contested entanglements of knowledge and practice reconfigurings in STEAM education.
Trade Review"As a pragmatist I found the examples and accounts deeply inspiring (…) For those who are well versed in the philosophy of learning and education I expect the language and references would either be reassuringly familiar or helpful in terms of opening up new pathways and arguments. The audience for this, in HE terms, is anyone looking for innovative ways of approaching learning through creativity and exploring the physical world through experience. This works well for those training to teach in primary and secondary education and obviously for those looking to train teachers." - Simon Gamble (2021) Why science and art creativities matter.
