A Heart of Wisdom : Life Writing as Empathetic Inquiry, Paperback / softback Book

A Heart of Wisdom : Life Writing as Empathetic Inquiry Paperback / softback

Edited by Cynthia Chambers, Erika Hasebe-Ludt, Carl Leggo, Anita Sinner

Part of the Complicated Conversation series

Paperback / softback

Description

This anthology explores life writing as a mode of educational inquiry, one where students and teachers may get a «heart of wisdom» as they struggle with the tensions and complexities of learning and teaching in challenging contemporary circumstances.

Contributors write first-person creative non-fiction in a variety of life-writing genres, such as memoir, poetry, personal essay, and various blended genres.

Four sections entitled Memory Work, Place Work, Curriculum Work, and Social Work explore the struggles and joys of pedagogy where relationships are at the heart of teaching and learning.

The essays address questions such as: What critical moments in learning and teaching change lives?

What stories need to be told? What questions ache to be asked?
