Modes and Meaning

Displays of Evidence in Education

Herausgeber: Thyssen, Geert; Priem, Karin

Beschreibung

There is a growing interest and debate amongst historians of education surrounding issues of visuality, materiality, spatiality, transfer, and circulation. This book focuses on the interaction between ideas, images, objects, and/or spaces that contain an educational dimension, addressing how meaning is created, conveyed, and transformed through communication, representation, and interaction; through movement across spaces; through media and technology; and through collective memory- and identity-making. The collection demonstrates that meaning is mobilized through multimodality, translocation, technology, and heritage. This book was published as a special issue of Paedagogica Historica.
