Weaving Axiological Commitments, Social Dreaming, and Digital Storytelling Toward Sociopolitical Imagination: A Collaboration

Sun, April 14, 7:45 to 9:15am, Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, Floor: Level 3, Room 305

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

As the field recognizes the need to move beyond critique of what is not working toward what else is possible in learning ecologies, this symposium traces teaching and learning across the ecologies of two social design-based projects. Moving from a macro level of co-design work to the micro-interactions within learning settings, the papers in this symposia examine how co-designed axiological principles across two research partnerships created the conditions for young people to engage with their sociopolitical imaginations, mediating their engagement with technology focused activities. The papers presented in this symposium focus on designing for educational justice within the broader historical struggle that redefines "educational success” to encompass sociopolitical understandings of STEM fields, with a particular focus on technology.
