Session Summary

. . . In-the-Making: Generating Curricular Possibilities With Janet L. Miller

Sun, April 15, 8:15 to 9:45am, Millennium Broadway New York Times Square, Floor: Eighth Floor, Gallery 8

Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

Participants in this symposium, comprised of Janet L. Miller’s former and current students and highly influenced by Miller’s feminist and post-foundational curriculum theorizing, will address current issues in curriculum studies. In particular, the six participants will explicate ways in which Miller’s four decades of theories and research have had formative influences on as well as have advanced their own scholarship. Panelists strive to both revisit Miller’s contributions to curriculum theorizing through her life work and to create a cross-generational conversation as part of what Miller envisions as the field’s broad, diverse and yet multiply connected “curriculum communities without consensus.” Panelists also will invite audience members to elaborate on generative potentials of Miller’s work for their own curriculum endeavors.
