Call for Papers - RGS-IBG 2018, Cardiff, UK
Tear down the walls! Cross-disciplinary engagements with geographies of education and learning, Geographiedidaktik and young people’s geographies
Session Convenors:
Dr. Itta Bauer, University of Zurich, Switzerland and Dr. Matt Finn, University of Exeter, contacts: itta.bauer@geo.uzh.ch, m.d.finn@exeter.ac.uk
Abstract:
The starting point of this session is Doreen Massey’s argument that stimulating intellectual developments particularly come from “places where boundaries between disciplines have been constructively breached and new conversations have taken place” (Massey 1999: 5).
We seek to cross boundaries between geography, social and cultural studies, didactics and pedagogy by promoting an “engaged pluralism” (Barnes and Sheppard 2010) of new ideas of research and teaching in the geographies of education and learning. These boundaries may have been built (and increased) on the premise of different languages and publication cultures or various forms of academic socialization and network commitments. Our hope is that by focusing on “connecting things”, we may actually renew the debate on “geography without borders” instigated by Castree, Fuller and Lambert (2007) but the promise of which remains unrealized.
To work towards this unfulfilled promise, we would like to explicitly invite contributions from geography, learning and didactics (Geographiedidaktik, didactique de la géographie, etc.). Issues like e.g. sustainability and learning (BNE) (Bagoly-Simo 2013; Widener, Gliedt and Tziganuk 2016), citizenship education (Jekel, Gryl and Oberrauch 2015; Mills 2012), critical and cultural geographies of schools and learning (Mills and Kraftl 2016; Noethen and Schlottmann 2015; Schreiber, Stein and Pütz 2016; Schröder 2016), or new socio-technical innovations in geography education (incl. MOOCS, GIS, GPS, and social media) certainly are interesting intersections that offer common ground for cross-disciplinary fertilization. The session opens up a space where the many existing (at times parallel) discourses may benefit from an open-minded exchange of ideas, theories, practices, and policies of research. It is our intention to productively take the discourses elsewhere (Gregson and Rose 2000): from a national to an international audience, from the narrow borderlines of disciplines to an exchange among (and beyond) geographers with various interests and backgrounds and live up to the claim of a geography that is not only transgressing, but actually may indeed be undoing borders.
Broadly speaking the sessions will consider:
· What can be learnt through bringing geographies of education, young people’s geographies and geography education into dialogue?
· How might the concerns and debates in international literature and language traditions, challenge and enliven Anglophone/international work and vice versa?
We would like to invite contributions that engage with these themes through issues such as, but not restricted to:
· Spatial citizenship, geo-spatial learning and geocapabilities
· Space, place and learning about geographies of difference, including education concerning gender, race, sexualities, dis/ability
· Governmentality and sites of learning
· Positionality of students, teachers and researchers exploring the possibilities and challenges of working at the borderlines of geography and didactics
· Geo-politics of education, learning and geographical knowledge
· Assemblage approaches to young people’s geographies and to their education and learning
· Critical geographies of education, learning and young people including but not limited to responses to austerity, racism, and consumer culture.
We would particularly like to support participation from people of contexts affected by inequalities that make attendance challenging. We can explore means of achieving this, which could include pre-recorded video presentations or skype presentations.
The session(s) will be organized in 4 x 20 min. presentations, plus 20 min. discussion.
If you are interested, please send a title, 250-word abstract and author details to:
The deadline for submission is 9th February 2018.
The session is co-sponsored by the Geographies of Children, Youth and Families Research Group (GCYFRG), the Higher Education Research Group (HERG) and Hochschulverband für Geographiedidaktik (HGD)

Dear all - please see below a 2nd CFPs for the RGS-IBG 2018:
Introducing Young People to ‘Unfamiliar Landscapes’
Sponsored by the Geographies of Children, Youth and Families Research Group (GCYFRG)
Convenors:
Dr Thomas Aneurin Smith, School of Geography and Planning, Cardiff University: smitht19@cardiff.a
‘Unfamiliar landscapes’ are places young people are introduced to, voluntarily or otherwise, by a range of actors. Unfamiliar landscapes include green and blue spaces that many young people cannot experience independently, because they are difficult to access, or because they are not skilled in traversing them: mountains, hills, forests and waterways, but also places that, although familiar, become unfamiliar as sites for formal or informal learning, about ecology, heritage or wellbeing.
Some argue such landscapes only recently became ‘unfamiliar’ to many young people. There has been considerable societal concern around young people’s access to nature, their freedoms to roam independently (Smith and Dunkley 2017). This has led to various claims about possible negative effects of ‘Nature Deficit Disorder’ (Louv 2008) on their wellbeing (Witten et al. 2013). Much of this concern focuses on children, rather than the more ‘difficult’ category of ‘Youth’. Equally, such concern neglects the plethora of services and organisations (schools, youth service providers, the outdoor education sector) that have long been introducing youngsters to unfamiliar landscapes. In the age of austerity and accountability these services find themselves under increasing pressure, with likely consequences for whether, how and where youth are introduced to unfamiliar landscapes.
This session will explore how introductions to ‘unfamiliar landscapes’ are caught in a number of contemporary tensions between youth, society and the environment, and how young people navigate this terrain. Themes include:
· sanctioning contemporary landscapes as appropriate or otherwise for youth to engage with ‘nature’ and ‘the outdoors’,
· organisations and individuals enabling youth to acquire skills and techniques for acting in unfamiliar landscapes,
· contrasting familiar and unfamiliar landscapes, how they are discursively and practically made (un)familiar to youth,
· ways young people understand and experience introductions to unfamiliar landscapes,
· the role of youth organisations, professionals and volunteers, including relationships between these organisations and young people,
· austerity’s impacts on youth provision, repercussions for youth access to, and enskilling in, unfamiliar landscapes,
· youngsters’ boredom when introduced to the unfamiliar,
· the culture of accountability, evidencing and evaluation, and implications for youth provision working with unfamiliar landscapes.
We welcome contributions from both researchers and practitioners who work in the youth or outdoor sectors, broadly defined. We will run two sessions – the first a paper session (15min presentations) followed by a practitioner forum in the form of a round table including invited practitioners from youth organisations and specialist youth workers.
Abstracts for paper presentations (250 words) should be sent to pitth2@cf.ac.uk and smitht1
The 2018 Annual International Conference will be held at Cardiff University in Cardiff, from Tuesday 28 to Friday 31 August 2018.

Balanço de 25 anos da produção científica em Educação Especial
Nas últimas décadas tem avançado enormemente a discussão e a implantação de políticas públicas que garantem direitos sociais e educacionais a diferentes grupos sociais, historicamente submetidos a distintas formas de exclusão. Em particular, o público da Educação Especial passou a acessar novas oportunidades, mediante a ampliação das políticas de educação inclusiva, calcadas na valorização da diversidade e no respeito aos direitos humanos.
Diante disso, torna-se importante compreender como a produção científica na área de Educação Especial, em diálogo com diferentes áreas do conhecimento (como Educação, Psicologia, Saúde, entre outras), tem analisado os processos sociais, políticos e educacionais vivenciados por essa parcela da população.
Para tal, e com o objetivo de comemorar os 25 anos da Revista Brasileira de Educação Especial (RBEE), lançamos esta chamada pública para submissão de artigos a serem publicados em uma edição especial dedicada ao balanço da produção científica brasileira em Educação Especial nos últimos 25 anos.
A submissão e a avaliação dos artigos seguirão as regras da revista, conforme cronograma a seguir:
Submissão online: 2 de janeiro a 5 de março de 2018
Avaliação por pares: 6 de março a 15 de abril
Publicação: maio a junho de 2018.
Atenciosamente,
Tesouraria ABPEE.
