Science and Drama: Contemporary and Creative Approaches to Teaching and Learning
This edited volume presents interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches to drama and science in education. Drawing on a solid basis of research, it offers theoretical backgrounds, showcases rich examples, and provides evidence of improved student learning and engagement. The chapters explore various connections between drama and science, including: students’ ability to engage with science through drama; dramatising STEM; mutuality and inter-relativity in drama and science; dramatic play-based outdoor activities; and creating embodied, aesthetic and affective learning experiences. The book illustrates how drama education draws upon contemporary issues and their complexity, intertwining with science education in promoting scientific literacy, creativity, and empathetic understandings needed to interpret and respond to the many challenges of our times. Findings throughout the book demonstrate how lessons learned from drama and science education can remain discrete yet when brought together, contribute to deeper, more engaged and transformative student learning.
Celebrating Diversity in Becoming an Educational Researcher
This book offers a collection of 15 reflective biographical accounts of teachers, scientists, a childhood author, a philosopher, a dancer and other academics' journeys to becoming educational researchers. The personal and professional stories highlight for any would-be doctoral student, researcher or educationalist the challenges and problem resolutions to becoming a researcher. The reflective aspects of the narrated stories also include ‘what I wish I knew before I embarked’ upon the researcher journey. These wise words, drawing on lived-experiences, are useful for educational researchers, educational policymakers drawing on research and also those responsible for designing doctoral programmes. The penultimate chapter also introduces the passionate voices of the authors that convey the true reality of learning as they develop their identities, appropriate new forms of knowledge, knowing and understandings. In addition to this, the use of metaphors brings alive each authors’ experiences to demonstrate how this journey is profoundly transformational for everyone!
