Zusatztext Tyson E. Lewis dissolves the means-ends logic in the hierarchy "philosopher-teacher-student" that has held us captive since Plato. With constant reference to Italian critic Giorgio Agamben! Lewis plots ways of not-getting-educated-friends studying alongside one another! a student scattered in distraction! a teacher miming virtuous actions as if to say! "anybody can play at this." More than a philosophical critique of educational theory: this book also tells how to live joyfully within a finite frame. When there is no final! total "in-order-to!" we receive the "gift of inoperativity." - Paul North! Professor Germanic Languages! Yale University! USA Informationen zum Autor Tyson E. Lewis is Associate Professor of Art Education at the University of North Texas. Zusammenfassung Inoperative Learning draws upon the movement towards a weak philosophy that is currently gaining ground in educational philosophy: this weak philosophy does not offer a set of solutions or guidelines for improving educational outcomes, but rather renders assumptions about the theory-practice coupling that is so popular in contemporary education inoperative.
