six lakehead 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and alumni, along with one professor, had their research artwork accepted by the canadian journal for the study of adult education, for a juried national virtual exhibition – part of a special issue on learning and teaching: artful narratives of transformation.

this vibrant collection of 22 original works – with seven pieces coming from lakehead – offers a diversity of glimpses into the topic of teaching, learning, and transformation. taken together, the works create a multi-textured, integrated depth of possibilities for considering our roles as teachers and learners in this time that cries out desperately for large-scale transformations.

“contemplating these compelling ideas may indeed inspire the sparks of hope and creativity we need right now,” said robin faye, artist-researcher and med student at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 .

tashya orasi, a student in leadership and policy studies in the joint phd in educational studies program, agreed. “i am excited that important discussions are happening about the potential for creativity to be a transformative force in the lives of teachers and 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ."

“in this time of solitude and reclusiveness for safety, i am beyond grateful to share virtual art space in a national exhibit with so many from my own community,” said barbara benwell, who holds an ma in social justice studies and is an artist.

“the images of transformation in teaching perfectly reflect the adaptive nature of exhibiting work during a worldwide pandemic,” she added.

through lakehead’s faculty of education, arts integrated research continues to demonstrate the strengths of interdisciplinary collaboration and creativity.

“this national juried exhibition demonstrates to me how my work has transcended disciplinary boundaries and audiences. it has allowed me to reimagine the pedagogical possibilities of my arts integrated research within and beyond the field of education,” said mehdia hassan, 2019 alumna of 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 ’s ma program in social justice studies and current phd student in social justice education at the university of toronto.

"i am so honoured to work with these talented scholars and artists and grateful to lakehead for its ongoing support of multi-modal and interdisciplinary initiatives," said dr. pauline sameshima, canada research chair in arts integrated studies.

phd student holly tsun haggarty is also thankful. “i will just express my pleasure at being included with such fine artists, and my gratitude for the ongoing mentorship by dr. pauline sameshima.”
