Affective Teaching for Effective Learning: A Deleuzian Pedagogy for the (Corporate Era and) Chinese Context
Fleming, David H.
Educational Philosophy and Theory, v46 n10 p1160-1173 2014
In this article I explore the pedagogical value of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's philosophical concepts for helping make an "event" of thought, with a view towards fostering deep learning in Chinese students' learning theory and criticism in a second language. Paying attention to the qualitative role of bodies, humour and creativity alongside an expanded trans-personal concept of "educational life forms" that stretches out to include an affective assemblage of inhuman elements (such as art and technology), I explore how Deleuze and Guattari's philosophical models provide a ethical alternative to corporate, Confucian and Cartesian models otherwise inhibiting students and teachers in the modern Sino-international university context.
