On the tangible material culture of child-rearing, education, and educational research
Paul Smeyers , Marc Depaepe
pp. 1-12
This edited collection focuses at the complex relationship of the individual and her material culture, not only in the context of child-rearing and education, but also concerning the research into this field. A kaleidoscope of aspects, approaches and contexts of scientific practices is dealt with: from "the school desk", paintings, drawings and emblems, and more in general visual and literary approaches to education, to "name/date and footnote styles of citation", guidelines for publications in social sciences, and the pictorial template dominant in educational research. Attention is paid to non-representational theory, to the way in which educational research is affected by the economic, institutional and physical contingencies of its time, and to conversation as relevant in the construction and representation of educational research. Examples are drawn from a wide scope including iconography but also mathematics education.
