Feeling Our Way: Teaching, Writing, and Reading with Belief (JAEPL Winter 2008-2009)
Editor(s): Kristie S. Fleckenstein, Linda T. Calendrillo
The Journal of the Assembly for Expanded Perspectives on Learning (JAEPL) provides a forum for research, theory, and classroom practices that extend beyond traditional approaches to language.
This featured issue celebrates the importance of feelings—emotional, physical, and spiritual—as key to the transformative possibilities of teaching, writing, and reading.
Peter Elbow, Nathaniel Teich, Mary Rose O’Reilley, and Patricia Bizzell open with a polylogue on the believing game, one that emphasizes the importance of a multifaceted engagement as a foundation for critique.
Our last three essays explore the intersections of teaching and feelings. Turning to Eastern mysticism, Gina Briefs-Elgin finds inspiration for career burnout in Hinduism, Sufism, Zen Buddhism, and Kabbalah. Gesa Kirsch transforms her classroom into a risky site where students can connect mind, heart, body, and soul to nourish and sustain an inner life. Finally, Sue Hum tackles the importance of pleasure in digitally mediated classrooms.
