[ecrea] CfP HEA Arts and Humanities - Interdisciplinarity in teaching and learning narrative

CfP – Interdisciplinarity in teaching and learning narrative: Crossing 
creative and critical boundaries

Friday 28th March 2014 – The University of Brighton
Keynote Speakers

Professor Corinne Squire – Centre for Narrative Research, University of 
East London

Graham Rawle – Writer, artist and designer

Narrative has emerged as a vibrant field of academic enquiry with 
several research centres across the UK, dedicated international 
journals, and an emerging understanding of the importance of narrative 
beyond academic study in for example social change. Traditionally 
located in literary scholarship, narrative has developed a distinctive 
place in a variety of academic and professional fields including 
teachers’ CPD, counselling and medical practice. In contemporary 
academia, narrative is a focus across a range of disciplinary areas 
including Illustration, Design, English Literature, Media, Film and 
Screen, History, Politics, English Language and Linguistics. It is 
incorporated into social enquiry in areas including conflict studies, 
migration and belonging, memory, identity, discourse studies and folklore.

This one day workshop aims to bring together scholars working in 
trans-disciplinary ways in Higher Education in order to explore the 
potential of narrative as both an interdisciplinary object of enquiry 
and a facilitator of that enquiry for academic and personal development. 
We invite both papers and workshop activities from academics, students 
and practitioners across a broad range of practices and subject areas to 
address interdisciplinarity in the teaching and learning of narrative 
across critical and creative boundaries including but not limited to:

· Interdisciplinary teaching of/in/through narrative

· Where the creative and critical meet in the teaching and learning of 
narrative

· Political – personal dialogues in the teaching and learning of narrative

· Narrative practices of teacher and learner identities

· Narrating the self online

· Community engagement through narrative practices

· The future of interdisciplinary narrative study in HE

Abstracts of 250 words for 15 minute papers or workshop proposals by 
10th January 2014 to: (r.k.adamson /at/ brighton.ac.uk)
