Abstract

In this symposium, interdisciplinary perspectives and research methods—from the neurosciences, Black and ethnic studies, psychology, anthropology, philosophy, cultural studies, gender & women’s studies, and sociology—come together to elaborate an expansive vision of learning that ignites further inquiry into the cultural foundations of learning—the topic of a new Routledge Handbook (Nasir, Lee, Pea, & McKinney de Royston, forthcoming). This symposium includes interactive roundtables hosted by authors from sections of the Handbook: 1) Human Evolution, Physiological Processes, and Participation in Cultural Practices; 2) Discourse, Positioning, Argumentation, & Learning; 3) Learning Across Contexts; 4) Reframing Culture and Learning; and 5) Implications for Policy and Practice. The session will conclude with reflections from each roundtable and a who group discussion. This symposium, like the Handbook, seeks to synthesize and enrich our understanding of the processes of learning to support our capacity as a field to address critical problems in education.
