51.020 - Inter/national Knowledge Production and Mobilization in Education in a Post-Truth Era

Sun, April 7, 3:40 to 5:10pm, Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Floor: 200 Level, Room 206D

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

This symposium brings together two frontiers of research related to knowledge production and mobilization (KMb). The first is KMb in influencing the policy agenda and policy perceptions, while the second is KMb in the operation of school systems and classrooms. This symposium bridges and advances these frontiers by showing (a) how the connections among interest groups, think tanks, researchers, media, and public opinion are increasingly affected by private actors and networks that are global in nature and (b) how underlying connections or relationships among actors not only influence agenda setting and policy perception in the United States and beyond but also influence the mobilization and utilization of information by system- and district-level actors—and with what implications.
