Movement, Environment, and Meaning in Learning
Mon, April 11, 11:45am to 1:15pm, Marriott Marquis, Floor: Level Two, Marquis Salon 14Session Type: Symposium
Abstract
This symposium takes into consideration how bodies—moving in connection with peers and teachers’ bodies, with technological supports, and with naturalistic environmental resources—blend with social and material spaces to promote learning. Each symposium presenter discusses two central themes: (1) how to understand the technical augmentation of embodiment and (2) how to understand the correspondence between body movements in the learning environment and the events about which the students are learning. Presents will focus on learning among students of multiple ages in a variety of content areas, including geology, chemistry, geometry, biology, and physical sciences.
