How might the concept of mattering be helpful for our understanding of higher education? In this book, \u003cem\u003eRelational Pedagogies\u003c\/em\u003e, Karen Gravett examines the role of relationships, and in particular of relational pedagogies, where meaningful relationships are positioned as fundamental to effective learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShe explores concepts of authenticity, vulnerability, and trust within learning and teaching, as well as the potential of working with students in partnership. This book examines the role of relationships between colleagues: how educators can learn from others both within and beyond higher education, as well as considering how teachers can support one another when working within challenging contemporary contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing upon a rich theoretical perspective that interweaves posthuman and sociomaterial theory, the book also introduces a broader conception of the relational, where relational pedagogies are understood as encompassing objects, spaces and materialities, as part of an interwoven web of relations. In exploring mattering, Gravett explores both who matters – who should be considered and valued – and the material mattering of learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this innovative conception of relational pedagogies, Gravett offers a broad and rich reworking of our understanding of relationality, offering fresh ways in which we might understand and conduct higher education theory and practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47597819396332,"sku":"9781350256705","price":401.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/5057da3f7cb55268bd5d11211c3b6117.jpg?v=1778027940","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/relational-pedagogies-by-karen-gravett-9781350256705","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
