MacDonald, A and Wise, K and Riggall, JL and Brown, NR, Converging discipline perspectives to inform the design and delivery of STEAM teacher professional learning, Australian Art Education, 40, (1) pp. 67-88. ISSN 1032-1942 (2019) [Refereed Article]
Abstract
STEAM education continues to build momentum across Australia, with education
stakeholders making space for the contribution that expanded and non-hierarchical
disciplinary perspectives are bringing to education at all levels. This article offers a
discussion of the lived experiences of teacher professional learning collaborators in
designing and delivering a multi-site, live streamed STEAM professional learning
event. The authorship teams’ individual and shared experiences of contributing to
teacher professional learning that holds space for broad and deep disciplinary
agendas to emerge are elicited. From this, implications of working with and from
ways of being, doing and knowing inherent to individual disciplines are considered in
relation to their wider disciplinary synergies. In mapping the synergies inherent to
the authorship teams’ experience of contributing to this event, this article illustrates
how storying disciplinary perspectives can elicit meaningful thresholds for
connection, convergence and collaboration.
