A Twitter love/life letter from Kelly Boucher

The below Tweet is from Kelly Boucher, a pedagogical facilitator in Melbourne, Australia. A few of us have had the opportunity to meet with her a few years ago. Her message is lovely and acts as wonderful and much needed reminder for educators…. ?

Quote of the day: van Dooren (2018)

To think with others is to engage with diverse ways of knowing, but it is also to be exposed to the many consequential ways in which these ways of knowing shape worlds.  In the field, it is much more difficult to dismiss othersunderstandings as ill informed or illogical.  Right or wrong, these are the understandings that structure modes of living…how do our particular histories, assumptions, and methods shape not only what we can see, but the worlds that we help to bring about? (p. 445)
