Jennifer, i have found these papers very helpful in understanding the multiple fields and fluidity of identity within a classroom setting. phillip Phillip White, PhD University of Colorado Denver School of Education phillip.white@ucdenver.edu ________________________________________ From: xmca-bounces@weber.ucsd.edu [xmca-bounces@weber.ucsd.edu] On Behalf Of Jennifer Vadeboncoeur [vadebonc@interchange.ubc.ca] Sent: Sunday, November 15, 2009 9:09 AM To: eXtended Mind, Culture, Activity Subject: Re: [xmca] Emotions and methodology Mabel and Martin, A colleague and I are finishing up a paper looking at SEL programs and we've also used Martin's (2001) piece, The problem of transfer, and the sociocultural critique of schooling in the Journal of the Learning Sciences to think through ontology, the production of positions for identities, and the role of schooling in the process of "producing" certain kinds of "outcomes" for children and youth. The "purpose of schooling" is a central issue to (all of) our work, and one that surfaced at AERA several years ago as well. Nel Noddings work may help in a tangential way, because she is concerned as well with creating a school context that addresses the whole person-a person with cognitive, affective, social abilities and relationships. She has challenged folks like Cohen of the Center for Social and Emotional Education, recently, to think through changes in school climate on a broader and more relational level.
