This book explores poetry and pedagogy in practice across the
lifespan. Poetry is directly linked to improved literacy,
creativity, personal development, emotional intelligence, complex
analytical thinking and social interaction: all skills that are
crucial in contemporary educational systems. However, a narrow
focus on STEM subjects at the expense of the humanities has led
educators to deprioritize poetry and to overlook its
interdisciplinary, multi-modal potential. The editors and
contributors argue that poetry is not a luxury, but a way to
stimulate linguistic experiences that are formally rich and
cognitively challenging. To learn through poetry is not just to
access information differently, but also to forge new and different
connections that can serve as reflective tools for lifelong
learning. This interdisciplinary book will be of value to teachers
and students of poetry, as well as scholars interested in literacy
across the disciplines.
