Learning and the Growing Body: Embodied Learning Research Across Different Age Groups
Wed, April 23, 12:40 to 2:10pm MDT (12:40 to 2:10pm MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Meeting Room Level, Room 709Session Type: Symposium
Abstract
Embodied learning research highlights the importance of integrating sensorimotor experiences across various domains and ages. Learning sciences researchers use multiple frameworks and methods tailored to different age groups. This symposium aims to bridge these approaches. Six scholars will present research on embodied learning from early childhood to college, discussing diverse methodologies and effects. The goal is to explore how different perspectives can enrich the field and discuss the potential of synthesizing multiple frameworks.
