Contents:
1. Introduction: Geometries of Liberation -- 2. Shaped by the Places We Reason? Contrasting the Rectilinearity of Western Educational Thought with Other Possibilities -- 3. Ecofractal Poetics: Five Fractal Geometries for Creative, Sustainable, and Just Educational Design -- 4. Always an Abundance: Interstitial/Liminal Space, Time, and Resources that Are Invisible to the Grid -- 5. The Curricular Geometries of *SAMBA* Schools: Fractal Dimensions, Surface, Depth, and Recursion -- 6. Of Grids and Gardens: School Gardening and the Unsettling Attachments of Teaching Beside the Grid -- 7. Off the Grid.
Summary: This book takes a fresh approach to using educational tools to solve profound problems in societies. The authors bring perspectives from curriculum studies, mathematics education, environmental education, and Indigenous epistemologies to a new consideration of “geometries to think with”. These tools reveal the wealth of resources and interrelationships in our world that have the potential to reconfigure and revitalize education. The transdisciplinary nature of the chapters and authors emphasizes the need for thinking beyond boundaries, while respecting the wisdom inherent in intellectual disciplines and traditions.
