Editorial: Bodily Learning Conference 2021

Abstract

The articles presented in this special issue were first presented at the international conference BODILY LEARNING, arranged by NTNU, Trondheim (2021, 22.–23. April, digital event). The aim of the conference was to continue the ongoing discussion about the role of the body in educational contexts. Bodily learning challenges dominant learning theory. Therefore, an engaged discourse on the topic that is open for new perspectives is needed. By discussing bodily learning, we may contribute to extending and rearticulating learning theories and initiate the development of new knowledge on how the body is involved in learning processes.
