Description
This inaugural event for the Northern Pedagogies Group examined how Arctic Pedagogy principles might support the development of Initial Teacher Education (ITE) across Scotland. The symposium was attended by academics and researchers from Scottish higher education institutions offering ITE along with four Arctic Pedagogy experts from the Faroe Islands, Norway, Iceland, and Finland. Organised in conjunction with the UArctic’s thematic network on Teacher Education for Social Justice and Diversity in Education, and other partners, this event represented the beginning of what is hoped will be further research, knowledge exchange, and teaching that links Arctic and indigenous pedagogies to widening and creative visions for Scottish ITE and beyond.
