In Mind in Motion, psychologist Barbara Tversky shows that spatial cognition isn't just a peripheral aspect of thought, but its very foundation, enabling us to draw meaning from our bodies and their actions in the world. Our actions in real space get turned into mental actions on thought, often spouting spontaneously from our bodies as gestures. Spatial thinking underlies creating and using maps, assembling furniture, devising football strategies, designing airports, understanding the flow of people, traffic, water, and ideas.

Seeber discuss how adopting the principles of the Slow movement in academic life can counter this erosion of humanistic education.

Ein ruhiger Moment an einem Flussufer, Abendbrot mit einem lieben Menschen, ein Glas Wein am Ende eines erfüllten Tages: Wie oft sagen wir uns, dass es die kleinen Dinge sind, die im Leben wirklich zählen?

Published in 1762, it had a profound impact on the approach to the education and upbringing of a child, through infancy, childhood, adolescence and into adulthood. This was partly fuelled by the format – for Rousseau presents before us the boy Emile, taking him through the various stages of life, and as Emile becomes a young man, introducing a female counterpart, Sophie. This device personalises what would otherwise be a more formal philosophical presentation.

Gli adolescenti la esprimono in vari modi e possono essere disastrosi: bullismo e vandalismo. Ma anche meravigliosi: passione civile e impegno sociale.

Em Como ser um educador antirracista, Bárbara Carine, conhecida nas redes como "uma intelectual diferentona", discute sobre como a educação e a escola podem ser pensadas a partir de perspectivas não ocidentalizadas e, sobretudo, racializadas. A autora esmiuça conceitos ligados à luta antirracista, como pacto da branquitude, racismo estrutural, cotas raciais e educação emancipatória, para (re)pensar as ações pedagógicas e a formação e o papel dos educadores, que são, afinal, todos nós, os "doadores de memórias" que integram a escola.
