[xmca] Performatory Research and Inquiry

[Lois Holzman <lholzman@eastsideinstitute.org>]

Dear XMCA-ers,

We want to bring your attention to a unique AERA Professional Development mini-course, “Performatory Research and Inquiry” taking place on Saturday, April 9, 8 am – 12 pm at the Hotel Monteleone/Vieux Carre.  It's an opportunity to create new ways of perceiving and performing educational research/inquiry by experiencing the conceptualization and use of a performatory model of learning, teaching, and researching. Over the course of this professional development session, you will learn the fundamentals of performance and improvisation, how to utilize these skills in creating your research persona, and how to generate and/or research learning environments that are performance-based. We offered a variation on this mini-oourse at the annual meeting in Denver last year and the participation and response was very enthusiastic.

Please pass this message and description (below) along to other AERA members, SIG listserves and websites, colleagues and students through personal communication and postings. And contact me if you want further information.

Much thanks,
Lois, Carrie and Tony

This professional development course addresses the need for educational researchers to develop their creativity in response to the demands that both public and professional dialogue are placing on education. New populations of students and new learning tools require not only new methods of teaching, teacher education, and educational research, but also new attitudes toward and understandings of these social activities and identities. The mini-course introduces graduate students and faculty to the performatory model of learning, teaching, and researching that relates to the process of inquiry as an exercise of social creativity. Participants learn the fundamentals of performance and improvisation, how to utilize these skills in creating one’s research persona, and how to generate and/or research learning environments that are performance-based.
