Abstract

We explore our teaching of Biographical Explorations of Teaching and Learning, a Curriculum and Instruction Masters course in the Faculty of Education at Memorial University in which we develop creative and imaginative thinking and learning amongst educators. We invite students into a multi-modal exploration of their lives as teachers and learners via readings, visual art, drama, music, literary writing, and media pieces that explore themes in teaching and learning. Students think critically about how narratives work within personal/professional and societal cultural contexts. They learn about and engage in creative ways of telling a story. In this paper we critically reflect on the affordances and challenges of this approach to arts-informed critical graduate pedagogy.
