Acting With Inscriptions: Expanding Perspectives Of Writing, Learning, And Becoming, Kevin R. Roozen

The Journal of the Assembly for Expanded Perspectives on Learning

This article argues for increased attention to people’s engagements with inscriptions and inscriptional practices and the long-term implications they have for the ongoing production of persons, practices, and social worlds across heterogeneous times, places, and activities.

Warm Journal Volume 3 Issue 2, 1973-2021 Women's Art Registry Of Minnesota

WARM Journal

This article has a theme of “Unlearning”, or the process of re-examining what one knows for purposes of self-examination. This includes a reading guide for the book because the journal is read right to left, instead of left to right, which ties in to the concept of unlearning.

The journal also includes art, poetry and reviews.
