Public defence of doctoral thesis | Exploring ways of empowering pupils in physical education through circus – an action research project | Matilda Lindberg, Malmö University, September 27, 2024
This study proposes changes to physical education. The aim of this action research project was to explore ways of empowering pupils in physical education. The study involves ten-year-old children from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds, their physical education teacher, and a teacher-researcher. The study is at the intersection of three different fields in relation to physical education: influence, language, and creativity. Exploratory circus activities are used as a means to empower pupils and challenge the conventional structure of the subject.
Call for Papers | Poetry in motion – creativity and knowledge production in sport, Panel PN16 of the 2024 World Anthropology Union Congress | Johannesburg, South Africa, November 11–15,...
The tension in sport between discipline and creativity, continuity and change, or stasis and invention prompts us to think about knowledge production more generally. We call for anthropologists of sport to consider the dynamics of knowledge production that occur when tensions exist between form and creativity. We particularly invite papers that consider the ramifications of this tension in both their ethnographic interactions and in their own knowledge producing practice.
