What changes in education, when it is not just humans whose
teaching is sought and acknowledged? And how can educational
research be accountable to the voices and agency of such
more-than-human teachers, interlocutors, and kin? These have become
pressing questions in an era of soaring interest in forest and
nature schools, place- and land-based education. Ecoportraiture
offers theoretical and practical guidance into an emerging
methodology with deep roots in the anti-racist, emancipatory
research tradition of portraiture initiated by Sara
Lawrence-Lightfoot and Jessica Hoffman Davis. Bracketed by the
editors' wide-ranging introductory essay and a closing critical
conversation, five inspiring chapters take readers deep into the
thinking and action that characterize ecoportraiture research.
Ideal for researchers at all levels who want to explore more deeply
how human learning is shaped and informed by the more-than-human,
this book also invites a wider audience into the artful practice of
close listening to the many voices of the natural world.
Ecoportraiture seeks to evoke and to guide journeys of knowing that
are both profoundly ecological and profoundly personal. This is an
open-ended and transformative methodology: one that is less about
finding answers than about asking better questions-about learning
to participate more deeply, as student, teacher, parent, community
member, and/or co-researcher, in the conversations of the Earth.
