Integrating Digital Literacy in the Disciplines
Digital literacy has become the vital competency that students need to master before graduating. This book provides rich examples of how to integrate it in disciplinary courses.While many institutions are developing introductory courses to impart universal literacy (skills students need to know) and creative literacy (skills for creating new content), discipline-specific skills (skills needed to succeed within a specific discipline) are a vital extension to their learning and ability to apply digital literacy in different contexts. This book provides examples of how to integrate digital literacy across a wide variety of courses spanning many domains.Rather than a wholly new core institutiona...
Choreographic Practice in Online Pedagogy
This book examines a creative approach to exploring choreographic practice artistically, theoretically, and pedagogically. It explores the interweaving of dance, dance teaching, dance onto-epistemologies, and choreography with a particular focus on creating dance with digital technologies. The idea of centring choreography in dance education fundamentally challenges typical conceptions of best practice in the preparation and delivery, appropriateness, and effectiveness of dance performance, teaching and learning experiences. It purposefully privileges creativity as a critical learning paradigm, extending the ways in which creativity studies are enriching performance scholarship as well as performance teaching. The book acknowledges the importance of the artist teacher nexus and presents choreographic practice as the centre of learning in dance, with a focus on digital platforms.

Disputed Territories
Disputed Territories investigates the significance of land for contesting cultural identities in comparable settler societies. In the regions of Australasia and southern Africa, European visions of landscape and nature have engaged with southern hemisphere environments and the cultures of indigenous peoples. Amid conflicts over land as a material resource, there has also been an intellectual contest over the aesthetic, iconic and cultural meanings of natural forms and species.Arising from a programme of seminars held at The University of Western Australia, this collection of eminent international authors assembles contributions from anthropology, geography, history and literary studies. The combination of diverse methods and theoretical approaches establishes the ways that land and nature constitute disputed territories in the mind, as well as material resources subject to pragmatic negotiations.
