Description
This comprehensive volume highlights the paradigm shift, creative approaches, and theoretical and practical aspects of rhizomatic learning. The great French theorists Deleuze and Guattari introduced the concept of the rhizome to allow educators to explore the educative process with the rhizomatic lens. The chapters cover digital pedagogies, the conceptual framework of rhizome and nomadic pedagogy in 21st-century education. It creates rhizomatic learning environments and rhizome metaphors to illuminate learning and teacher professional development. It covers an extensive range of issues and challenges related to teaching and learning in the techno centric education systems. It presents an up-to-date and comprehensive analysis of rhizomatic learning approaches in various disciplines. It examines the following key questions:
- What is the conception of rhizomatic learning and nomadic pedagogy?
- In which ways can rhizomatic learning transform teaching methods in the digital era? How can educators implement a rhizomatic learning approach in practice?
What is the connection between the rhizomatic process and divergent thinking in socially mediated and technology-driven learning environments?
Combining theory and practice, this book is essential reading for educational policymakers, teacher educators, university faculty, researchers, instructional designers, learning technologists, teachers, and undergraduate and graduate students worldwide.
