Although a number of rape prevention programs exist, the interACT Troupe is distinguished by their commitment to social justice pedagogy and proactive performance. Influenced by critical pedagogy and Theatre of the Oppressed, interACTuses embodied techniques aligned with feminist pedagogies to raise awareness, promote empathic responses, challenge (hyper)masculinity and encourage bystander inte...

Kline argues that it is crucial to isolate the respective roles of teaching and learning in order to understand how pedagogy has evolved. We argue that doing so requires testing species that learn from pedagogy but that rarely teach themselves. Here, we review how one previously neglected species - domesticated dogs (Canis familiaris) - may allow researchers to do just that.

The need for change and development in pedagogical approaches in infant classes in Ireland is clearly indicated by a number of recent reports. These reports, reviewed here, present a picture of pedagogy in infant classes as overly formal, insufficiently interactive and incoherent with current knowledge about learning in early childhood. Future developments in early childhood pedagogy will need ...

We discuss three kinds of arguments that support this hypothesis. First, natural pedagogy is likely to be human-specific: while social learning and...

For a Virtual Learning Environment a Digital Pedagogy is required, otherwise learning will be the same as usual with the only difference being, that reading and writing will be on the computer, and therefore the opportunity to use the Computer Science and Technology to empower the student’s learning is lost. The Digital Pedagogy needs to be Multi-Referential, which means that different knowledg...

any professors want to promote students’ critical thinking, foster self-examination, and facilitate civic engagement; however, these professors may be uncertain about how they can accomplish these objectives. The paradigm of transformative pedagogy (Mezirow and Associates 2000; Taylor 2000) can provide faculty with a useful theoretical perspective to guide their efforts. Descriptions of transfo...

The application of critical pedagogy in educational contexts has received adequate research attention over the last decades. The main focus of this strand of research has, however, been on raising awareness of the educators. Nevertheless, little is known about the consequences of the violation of critical pedagogy principles from EFL teacher trainers’ perspectives. To begin to address this gap ...
