Overview

This edited book approaches the learning experience as a creative, constructive process from an epistemological orientation that combines transdisciplinary, participatory, and collaborative approaches to explore the most constructive ways forward for a networked constructivist (project- and problem-based) pedagogy. The volume emphasizes the value of a number of modes of inquiry that, among others, include ethnography, auto-ethnography, corpus analysis, narrative analysis, and their many intersections in the process of academic maturation and growth. This book will be of interest to applied linguists, sociolinguists, researchers, and educators of topics related to higher education and academic maturation, networked learning, qualitative inquiry and transdisciplinary studies.
