This handbook provides an important overview of corporeality,
embodiment and learning in education from both theoretical and
empirical perspectives. Situating the body at the centre of
educational practice, the editors and contributors introduce the
concept of 'tact' as a practical corporeal language. The chapters
provide a spectrum of historical, conceptual, empirical and
practical educational approaches for embodied pedagogical
engagement. Tact and embodied knowledge form a significant
component of a teacher's capability and professionalism:
interacting with students, a pedagogue responds to them tactfully,
emotionally, sensitively, and reflectively searching for the right
thing to do, the right words to say, improvising in aural,
linguistic, spatial, and visual way that are as restrained as they
are enabled by the body. This handbook questions the familiar and
established essentialist and naturalist view of the body to allow
new perspectives on how corporeality affects learners. It will be
of interest to scholars in education and philosophy as well as
those researching in across social sciences.
