Jaepl : The Journal of the Assembly for Expanded Perspectives on Learning (Vol. 24, 2018-2019)

Volume 24 • 2018–2019 | THE JOURNAL OF THE ASSEMBLY FOR EXPANDED PERSPECTIVES ON LEARNING, JAEPL, provides a forum to encourage research, theory, and classroom practices involving expanded concepts of language. It contributes to a sense of community in which scholars and educators from preschool through the university exchange points of view and cutting-edge approaches to teaching and learning. JAEPL is especially interested in helping those teachers who experiment with new strategies for learning to share their practices and confirm their validity through publication in professional journals. | CONTENTS OF VOLUME 24: Dear JAEPL Readers | ESSAYS: Faith Kurtyka, “Be a Liberation Whatever”: Social Justice Literacy in a Living-Learning Community | Mara Lee Grayson, Racial Literacy Is Literacy: Locating Racial Literacy in the College Composition Classroom | SPECIAL SECTION: Encountering the Natural World: Environmental Education in the Arts and Humanities | Wendy Ryden, Swamps, Flat Earthers, and Boughs of Holly: “Encountering” the Natural World and the Poetics of Environmental Literacy | Brian Glaser, Containing the Jeremiad: Understanding Paradigms of Anxiety in Global Climate Change Experience | Amy Nolan, Seeking a Language that Heals: Teaching and Writing from a Ruined Landscape | Anastassiya Andrianova, Teaching Animals in the Post-Anthropocene: Zoopedagogy as a Challenge to Logocentrism | Michael S.
