Addressing making and crafting in relation to community and schooling practices, culture, and place, this edited collection positions making as an agent of change in education. In the volume's five sections-Play and Hacking, Access and Equity, Interdependence and Interdisciplinarity, Cultural and Environmental Sustainability, and Labor and Leisure-authors from around the world present a collage of issues and practices connecting object making, participatory culture, and socio-cultural transformation. Offering gateways into cultural practices from six continents, this volume explores the participatory culture of maker and crafter spaces in education and reveals how community sites hold the promise of such socio-cultural transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElizabeth Garber\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor Emeritx of Art at the University of Arizona, USA. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLisa Hochtritt is Director of the Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program at Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA), USA. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eManisha Sharma is an Associate Professor of Art at the University of Arizona, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 254\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 8.9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 13, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42127499788423,"sku":"9781138896222","price":103.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/b0ed9a03e83df2428aa97441563392b3.webp?v=1732588981","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/makers-crafters-educators-working-for-cultural-change-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
