Alone-together: intergenerational mapping of digital and analogue spaces of self

Harriet Hand et al.

Summary: This article discusses a project that experiments with mapping methods to explore spaces, times, and movements within materialisations of self. The project brings together adults and children from two cities during lockdown, challenging the notion of 'learning loss' during the pandemic and instead focusing on the potential of blending analog and digital spaces. The researchers adopt a speculative approach that recognizes the dynamic complexity of physical and virtual ways of knowing and being. The article examines the advantages and challenges of this methodology and concludes with the broader implications for post-pandemic pedagogies.

W(e)aving: When maker literacies and diffraction collide

Amelie Lemieux et al.

Summary: This article draws on posthumanist and new materialist perspectives to explore adults' involvement in environmentally oriented makerspace activities in higher education. By utilizing arts-based environmental education and maker research, the authors present post-qualitative findings using a weaving methodology and posthuman vignettes, shedding light on dynamic relationalities and guiding researchers towards more environmentally just futures. The use of posthuman methodologies in makerspace research that incorporates the arts has the potential to contribute towards craftivism, emphasizing the accountability of humans, particularly teachers, in ethical matters.

HIGH SCHOOL CHOICES AND THE GENDER GAP INSTEM

David Card et al.

Summary: Women are less likely than men to graduate with a degree in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) due to differences in STEM readiness, with only a small share attributable to differences in the choice of major conditional on readiness. The gender gap in the fraction of males and females with STEM prerequisites is small, with the primary driver of the gap in STEM readiness being the low rate of university entry by nonscience-oriented males.
