Voicing the challenges faced by an innovative teacher community
2011
This research draws on sociocultural theories of learning and activity theory to explore the challenges faced by an innovative community of teachers in Central Finland.

To achieve this goal, the teachers needed to form coherent groups within the member schools, as well as between the schools. The aim of this research is to give voice to the challenges identified by the teachers and in so doing give voice to the teacher community itself. Recognising the voice of this community also contributes to a broader conceptualisati…

2020
L'articolo coglie l’invito a recarsi a teatro con una domanda in mente: in che misura la data ‘spartiacque’ del 1989 ha influenzato, cambiato, sfidato la creazione scenica in Europa? Si tratterà di vedere in che misura la scossa dell’evento 1989 (di cui non è detto che coincida del tutto con la data 1989) permise alle arti sceniche di anticipare, nel paradossale ‘in più’ di una perdita di parola (che rintracceremo in alcuni lavori teatrali dell’epoca), una profonda trasformazione di cui viviamo oggi gli effetti.
