Learning Out of School

3 credits · Peabody College - Professional

This graduate seminar focuses on the learning of disciplinary knowledge and practices in out-of-school settings. These contexts include, for example, homes, community centers, performance troupes, workplaces, hobbyist groups, museums, zoos, prisons, hospitals, social media, and many more. We educators challenge our current notions about learning when we investigate learning in a wider variety of contexts, goals, and participants. [3]
