Drawing on research conducted mostly in Catalonia (Spain), Moises
Esteban-Guitart outlines a distinct vision of education enhanced by
students' identities, which leads to a discussion of the
sociocultural factors that shape the processes of learning. He
brings these ideas to life by examining traits of a mobile-centric
society, the present-day ecology of learning, and his three
metaphors of learning (connecting knowledge, connecting minds, and
connecting communities). He then suggests a number of basic
principles regarding learning for the twenty-first century based on
prior literature in the learning sciences. He presents the terms
'funds of identity' and 'meaningful learning experiences', and
reviews the funds of knowledge approach and the Vygotskian basis
for understanding identity. In the second part of the book, he
illustrates a number of strategies for detecting students' funds of
identity and their meaningful learning experiences, and describes
some practical experiences based on the theoretical framework he
adopted.
