[ecrea] Call for chapters: 'Mediated Pedagogies'

Call for chapters: ‘Mediated Pedagogies’

What stories are told about teaching and learning on television? And how 
do these stories, in fictional and factual genres, reflect, refract and 
construct myths, anxieties and pleasures about teaching and learning?

This edited collection will examine the ways in which particular 
representations explore, engage with and model pedagogic assumptions and 
approaches. The chapters could explore, but are in no way restricted to, 
for example:

        •       the construction and implications of different 
pedagogic models, e.g., training, apprenticeship, experiential, reflective;
        •       assumptions and tensions around teaching, learning and 
being a learner;
        •       evidence of ‘education’ - cultural capital, factual 
recall, know-how, know-how-to;
        •       the political economy of TV - public service/commercial 
contexts and pedagogic representations;
        •       how particular ‘learning journeys’ are manifested;
        •       the relationships between particular representations 
and wider educational policy debates;
        •       learning relationships (tutor/student, mentor/mentee etc.);
        •       the modelling of pedagogy/andragogy/heutagogy;
        •       historical/generic shifts and consistencies;
        •       the generation of dialogue between TV texts and their 
paratexts;
        •       manifestations of power, oppression and emancipation.

This brief list gives some idea of programmes that are explicitly 
concerned with education and pedagogic contexts, but should not be read 
as prescriptive or limiting - representations of teaching and learning 
will also be found in less obvious places.

In the first instance expressions of interest are welcomed in the form 
of a 200-300 word outline proposal for a chapter, together with a very 
brief biography. Writers of the most interesting proposals will then be 
contacted with a view to developing the outline into a 5-6,000 word chapter.

Please note that there is no contract with a publisher at this stage, 
although Palgrave Macmillan have expressed interest in the proposal. A 
further approach will be made when a compelling package of outlines has 
been assembled.

Expressions of interest by October 1st 2014 please, and informal queries 
and discussion welcomed in the meantime.
