This book was written to help people understand and transform
education and professional practice. It presents and extends the
theory of practice architectures, and offers a contemporary account
of what practices are composed of and how practices shape and are
shaped by the arrangements with which they are enmeshed in sites of
practice. Through its empirically-based case chapters, the book
demonstrates how the theory of practice architectures can be used
as a theoretical, analytical, and transformational resource to
generate insights that have important implications for practice,
theory, policy, and research in education and professional
practice. These insights relate to how practices are shaped by
arrangements (and other practices) present in specific sites of
practice, including early childhood education settings, schools,
adult education, and workplaces. They also relate to how practices
create distinctive intersubjective spaces, so that people encounter
one another in particular ways (a) in particular semantic spaces,
(b) that are realised in particular locations and durations in
physical space-time, and (c) in particular social spaces. By
applying such insights, readers can work towards changing practices
by transforming the practice architectures that make them possible.
