The Apparition Of These Screens In The Crowd, Trey Conatser

Greater Faculties: A Review of Teaching and Learning

To unpack some of our assumptions about attention, learning, and technology in the classroom, CELT's Trey Conatser spoke with Dr. Yuha Jung and Dr. Rachel Shane of the Department of Arts Administration.

What follows is an informal exploration of what it means to pay attention and to learn in the context of the contested value of digital technologies.

Journal of Social Theory in Art Education

Then, I describe how creating illustrations of the self as art teacher can further help explore fictions of teaching. …

I identify fictive kinship connections as salient in creating spaces which affect agency in the conceptualization and achievement of the self as an artist. I further use the concept of fictive kinship …
