Allan Michel Jales Coutinho will demonstrate how the tenets outlined in his recent book Curriculum Work and Social Justice Leadership: Attaining Critical Consciousness and Learning to Become seek to reframe curriculum work into a "collective public moral enterprise." He seeks to reposition such work so that it prioritizes social justice through a valuation of love, hospitality and solidarity.
While outlining the primary arguments made in his book, Allan will demonstrate potential applications for his approach by showing how a repositioned understanding of money, in particular, could work to reframe the field of financial education. Following this presentation, Allan will engage in a roundtable conversation with Alim Fakirani (Curriculum and Pedagogy), Sonia Huda (Curriculum and Pedagogy), and Bruce Moghtader (Centre for Community Engaged Learning), all scholars at UBC who investigate curriculum issues including immigration, human capital theory and autobiography.
Curriculum Work and Social Justice Leadership contains six chapters and a foreword written by the Tetsuo Aoki Professor in Curriculum Studies and editor of Routledge’s Curriculum Theory Studies Series William F. Pinar, who will moderate this talk. -
