Abstract

This symposium questions a basic assumption in the research and design of embodied learning environments: that the embodied forms of participation we design for will always be taken up as good and desired by participants. Across five papers, we reflect on our own design work across various contexts to think about how embodied learning spaces have and can invite embodied forms of participation that engage learners in meaningful participation while also affirming their dignity and human becoming. Across our work we seek to understand how learners' dignity intersects with embodiment. Together our research offers new directions in embodied methodologies and the design of embodied technologies and activities.
