Alan talked about our positioning in the inquiry process…
Constructivism tells us that we learn by fitting new understanding and knowledge into and with, extending and supplanting, old understanding and knowledge. …
Mezirow (1991) says learning is to bring about change or transformation

A body of knowledge … what do you know?

FIGURE 16.2 The body of knowledge of software developmentThis illustration is part of the book Management 3.0.
This is a ‘ragdoll exmaple of using the body image to map out a “body of knowledge’ for the software industry.

Try out your own ‘body’ to see what you know… how does this knowledge mapping relate to the knowledge you have onyour CV?
What do you want to know?The inquiry process…
Finding K Explaining
Using K to inform practice
Knowledge and understanding that is informed by your context
What is knowledge?
Knowledge in the arts and humanities – not just skills and competences but a structured series of engagement with a body of knowledge or (in the case of the practical arts) a body of practice… BUT NOTE THE BELOW
“[knowledge in] the arts and humanities change continuously by virtue of their being elements of a culture always ina condition of transformation. Theus they transform through internal dispute, contestation, revision of tastes and methods, discovery ofr recuperative research, politics and philosophies. These subjects are continuously in debate and discussion….”

Social science and education inquiry tools
Arts, creative, cultural – inc Performance
Trans-disciplinarity in work - inc. business, psychology, leisure, within the same project or inquiry
What areas of knowledge do we use for BAPP Arts?
The changing nature of knowledge
Lyotard(1984) knowledge is narrative and performative – only true of the time being – (value free?)
Foucault (1972) treated knowledge as discourse – ideological – that which is accepted as true usually discourse of the powerful
Jarvis (2001) The Age f Learning education and the Knowledge Society
What do you know and what do you want to know? Write down what you know and don’t know(anything – not just BAPP Arts related)
What I know
123
What I want to know
123
Compare your list with others and come up with some common themes about what you know…. these might change and may not be value-free
Networking Doing the inquiry – staging your work – applause (?)
Professional Practice/Work based learning
• Acknowledges that learning is political and performative in that learning based in work seeks not only a somewhat of rigid ‘knowledge of’ but also seeks to change, improve or subvert situated practice through reflection and research
• Asserts that learning should be emancipatory, in that it has the potential to empower learners
