Dear all,
CALL FOR PAPERS on lively learning.
‘Discourse, Power, Resistance’ (DPR13, April 9th-11th 2013, University of Greenwich), invites proposals for conventional academic and imaginative conference contributions addressing the theme of ‘Inclusion and Exclusion’ in education.
Eloïse Sentito (Plymouth University, Learning Development) is convening the symposium ‘Stimulating or stultifying? Education as if learning mattered’, which aims to explore, theoretically, practically, politically and/or artistically, what inspires and empowers students and pupils everywhere to be confident, creative, enquiring and critical. Please see the following blurb for a starting point: http://dprconference.com/component/content/article/55-uncategorised/355-stimulating-or-stultifying-education-as-if-learning-mattered
If your work may offer insights into these issues and you’d like to be involved, then please contact [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]:[log in to unmask]>> or Jerome Satterthwaite at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]:[log in to unmask]>>. Further information can be found at http://dprconference.com/.
It would be great to hear from you and I'd be happy to discuss your ideas. I would also be delighted if you would spread the word and consider posting this on other distribution lists (I've posted on LDHEN already).
Many thanks, and I hope to see you in Greenwich for a mean time! (Sorry!)

'Time is eternity living dangerously' (John O'Donohue, 1997)
Education can be an instrument for shaping its subjects into the supposed logic of the present system to bring about conformity. Or it can be the practice of freedom: the means by which you deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of your world (from Freire, 1970).
