What do meaningful connections in learning and teaching look like,
and how might we foster these? How might the concept of mattering
be helpful for our understanding of higher education? In this book,
Karen Gravett examines the role of relationships, and in particular
of relational pedagogies, where meaningful relationships are
positioned as fundamental to effective learning. She explores
concepts of authenticity, vulnerability, and trust within learning
and teaching, as well as the potential of working with students in
partnership. This book examines the role of relationships between
colleagues: how educators can learn from others both within and
beyond higher education, as well as considering how teachers can
support one another when working within challenging contemporary
contexts. Drawing upon a rich theoretical perspective that
interweaves posthuman and sociomaterial theory, the book also
introduces a broader conception of the relational, where relational
pedagogies are understood as encompassing objects, spaces and
materialities, as part of an interwoven web of relations. In
exploring mattering, Gravett explores both who matters - who should
be considered and valued - and the material mattering of learning.
In this innovative conception of relational pedagogies, Gravett
offers a broad and rich reworking of our understanding of
relationality, offering fresh ways in which we might understand and
conduct higher education theory and practice.
