Pedagogical Practices and Programmatic Structures to Support Youth Participation and Learning in Informal Environments
Sun, April 24, 8:00 to 9:30am PDT (8:00 to 9:30am PDT), SIG Virtual Rooms, SIG-Informal Learning Environment Research Virtual Paper Session RoomSession Type: Paper Session
Abstract
The papers in this session showcase a range of topics, including deep ethnographic studies of pedagogical practices to engage learners and support identity development, programmatic pivots in response to COVID, as well as long-term studies of factors that support inclusion and equity. Grouped together, the diversities in theoretical framings and methodologies form a fertile landscape on which researchers and practitioners can find underlying structural commonalities, share lessons learned, and cross-pollinate unique approaches that support learning and engagement in informal environments.
