Exploring PluriLogicality

A half-day interactive symposium

Hosted by the Creativity and Emergent Educational-futures (CEEN) Network, Graduate School of Education, University of Exeter


Event details

Abstract

The Creativity and Emergent Educational-futures (CEEN) Network brings together a group of people with overlapping and intersecting philosophical orientations, ideologies and values that challenge the status quo on education. Despite the diversity within CEEN, we all do research that, in various ways, argues for the centrality of difference and emergence in our practices of thinking, being and doing. We have termed this ‘pluri-logical’ because it challenges dominant linear, ‘mono-logical’ understandings, which are conducted exclusively within one point of view or frame of reference.  In this half-day symposium we wish to pursue this idea with colleagues and students to unpack and interrogate the notion of plurilogicality in a range of different educational contexts, both within and outside the university context.
