Lili Yan; Breanne K. Litts; Melissa Tehee; Stuart Baggaley; Jennifer Jenkins – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2025
Although education is framed as a future-oriented enterprise, we often fail to serve the diverse futurities of youth, particularly in formal learning environments. The cultural norms of formal learning environments are rooted in dominant ways of being and knowing and this shapes how learning environments and learning technologies can be designed.…

Tan, Da Yang – Online Submission, 2021
Applying physical principles is important for designs of various products with tailored performances. However, one of the long-standing issues of the students' design projects (or school's interdisciplinary projects) is the post-hoc imposition of the knowledge learned in their content subjects. This post-hoc imposition significantly diminishes the…

Morrison, Andrew; Erstad, Ola; Liestøl, Gunnar; Pinfold, Nicholas; Snaddon, Bruce; Hemmersam, Peter; Grant-Broom, Andrea – Oxford Review of Education, 2019
In this article we explore the dynamic between the pedagogical and the urban, attending to 'agentive urban learning'. By this we mean processes by which young people build agency in the urban context, in using the resources of the city to develop their own agency, and of developing agency to act within the city. By agency, we refer to the capacity…
