DIAS Wild Wednesday: 'Designing for academic literacy with embodied learning'
On this Wild Wednesday, let’s jointly create wild new formats for academic participation!Over the last decades, there has been an increasing focus in higher education on articulating and supporting students in developing academic literacy, not least to alleviate inequities between students from differing sociocultural backgrounds. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the literature on academic literacy focuses on the intellectual practices of academia (writing, orally presenting, discussing, providing constructive feedback etc.) and the appropriation, production and critique of these intellectual practices. However, this ignores the question of how the physical environments and the students’ and teachers’ bodily activities themselves support or hinder student learning of participation.In this design workshop, we explore how to take embodiment seriously, both in the overall organization of classrooms and educational formats, and in the continuous interaction of teachers and students in the carrying out of educational formats. The aim is to develop interaction formats that support students in understanding themselves and others as agentic, competent participants in academic practices.Wild Wednesday hosted by DIAS Fellow, Pat Treusch; Associate Professor Robb Mitchell; and DIAS Chair Nina Bonderup Dohn

After a short presentation of the concept of poly-crisis and extreme contexts, a panel of three scholars will present empirical cases of creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship in different extreme contexts (e.g. entrepreneurship during interstate wars), followed by a discussant who reflects on the cases.
