Passions are high in education, and this edited volume offers bold
new ways to conceive of the affective intensities shaping our
present historical moment. Concerns over school practices deemed
"ineffective," "disruptive," "irrational," or even "promising" are
matters modulated by and through feelings, such as, optimism,
shame, enhanced concentration, or empathy. The recent turn to
affect offers vibrant methodological and theoretical material for
an educational present marked by high stakes rhetoric, heated
debate, teacher and student vulnerabilities, and extreme
educational measures. Affect studies are a part of new materialist
and post-humanist turns, and this volume connects these new
theoretical directions within education. This comprehensive volume
on affect crosses educational subfields and responds to the
transdisciplinary interest in thinking through pedagogy, education,
and feeling. This comprehensive reader addresses affect in
education from a wide range of styles, topics, and perspectives.
This collection offers an introduction to theory, empirical
research studies, interviews with affect studies scholars, and an
assessment of the current and future significance of affect studies
in education. Contributors utilize a range of theoretical and
interpretive approaches to thinking with and through schooling
phenomena. Interviews with affect scholars in the humanities and
social sciences address affective dimensions of teaching. The
editors' introduction, different foci, and interdisciplinary genres
of writing help readers feel their ways into what affect studies in
education does and might do. This field-defining collection will be
of interest to a range of readers--from graduate students to
established scholars--with varying levels of expertise and
familiarity putting affect theories to work in education. All the
contributions are accessible to those new to the theory, methods,
and debates in this vibrant area of educational studies.
