Bradley, Lisa – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2023
This paper contributes to decolonisation theory and debates in Higher Education by thinking from the practice of diversifying subject reading lists. To illustrate the scene within which diversification efforts unfold I draw on primary research designed to explore the function of a subject canon (Urban Studies). Researched and written as an…

Chen, Yawei; Daamen, Tom A.; Heurkens, Erwin W. T. M.; Verheul, Wouter J. – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2020
To understand and deal with real urban development problems, urban planners, designers, and managers need to combine and synthesize a variety of academic and professional knowledge. As our urban challenges grow more complex, learning how to do this effectively becomes ever more important. For educators, this means teaching students how to work in…

Alicea, Julio Angel – Urban Review: Issues and Ideas in Public Education, 2023
This study examines often-overlooked youth perspectives on the sociospatial changes happening in a community experiencing Black displacement, mass Latinx immigration, and impending gentrification. To date, studies of complex urban change rarely consider the ways in which young people perceive and produce place differently from adults. Drawing on…

Mario Wolf; Michael Montag; Heinrich Söbke; Florian Wehking; Christian Springer – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2024
Escape rooms are an established game genre that has become popular in educational contexts in recent years. Digital escape rooms are variations, which use digital environments and may be played by participants not present on site. Compared to physical escape rooms, digital escape rooms are characterised by lower implementation and application…

Daniel Gutiérrez-Ujaque; Monica Montserrat Degen – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2024
The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed an alarming chasm between traditional higher education pedagogies and the lived experiences of students, posing new challenges to educators worldwide . Addressing this, our study proposes a curricular paradigm shift that foregrounds sensory and embodied learning. Influenced by a Critical Pedagogy of Place…

Jayagopalan, Gaana; Mukherjee, Sweta – Smart Learning Environments, 2022
This paper qualitatively analyses the implication of urban sensorium as a pedagogic mode in the teaching of Urban Studies. Underpinned by the frames of smart learning environments, the paper reiterates experiencing urban ontologies as spatial learning environments. By drawing from a range of transdisciplinary and experiential modes of learning,…

Kohe, Geoffery Z.; Wise, Nicholas – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2023
Sport and geography may be considered allied and complementary disciplines. They share, variously, interests in ideological and physical spaces, political and socio-cultural processes of space- and place-making, historical dis-/continuities, individual and collective identity formation, demography and topographies and representational practices…

Serrano-Estrada, Leticia; Martin, Tania Josephine; Marti, Pablo – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2023
Research that tackles the pedagogical use of geolocated social media as an investigative tool for understanding cities in Geography and Urban Studies higher education programs has not been fully exploited. This study contributes by addressing the transferability of these sources as a research medium for enhancing student knowledge of urban…

MacKinnon, Shauna – Pedagogy, Culture and Society, 2021
In 2015, Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC) described Canada's residential school policy, established in the 1880's and active through most of the 20th century, as 'cultural genocide'. Earlier that same year, Maclean's magazine described Winnipeg as Canada's most racist Winnipeg. Winnipeg, situated on Treaty One…

Kalafsky, Ronald V.; Rosko, Helen M. – Journal of Geography, 2017
Globalization would appear to be a subject that easily could be addressed in geography classrooms, yet this is not always the case. In terms of pedagogy, many geographers are concerned whether the field has been adequately engaging various components of this topic (e.g., connectivity, core-periphery), especially in terms of making the subject…

Paterson, Mark; Glass, Michael R. – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2015
Google Glass was deployed in an Urban Studies field course to gather videographic data for team-based student research projects. We evaluate the potential for wearable computing technology such as Glass, in combination with other mobile computing devices, to enhance reflexive research skills, and videography in particular, during field research.…

Brail, Shauna – International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, 2016
This study evaluates whether students who participate voluntarily in a service-learning activity achieve higher learning outcomes, measured by grades, than students who voluntarily choose not to participate in service learning. Analysis is based on a study of an introductory urban studies course at a large North American research university over a…

Golubchikov, Oleg – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2015
The paper proposes the notion of a "critical feel-trip" as a pedagogical narrative to entertain the relationships of experiential, affective and critical learning in field-based studies. It is argued that explicit mobilization of the triadic relations of these three modes of learning is a powerful way to strengthen students' appreciation…

Sassen, Saskia – European Educational Research Journal, 2012
Cities are complex systems. But they are incomplete systems. In this incompleteness lies the possibility of making--making the urban, the political, the civic, a history. The urban is not alone in having these characteristics, but these characteristics are a necessary part of the DNA of the urban. Every city is distinct and so is every discipline…
