Slow Curricula for Transformative Higher Education
Mon, April 20, 12:25 to 1:55pm, Virtual RoomSession Type: Roundtable Session
Abstract
This symposium includes scholars from different disciplinary fields and geographical locations who are informed by Slow scholarship in curriculum studies to consider how higher education (HE) pedagogies might be rethought and enacted. The five papers contribute to the conference theme which urges researchers and educational stakeholders to consider the past to examine perennial problems in HE. The papers use different aspects of Slow scholarship to think in expansive and creative ways about doing curriculum differently in HE. The symposium uses novel philosophical and theoretical concepts to make a contribution to Division B’s call to ‘engage realms of possibility in and through curriculum and curriculum studies’ and to ‘engage questions about curriculum as a pathway to freedom and transformation’.
