From Wikipedia:
Sublation is an English term used to translate Hegel's German term Aufhebung. The German word Aufhebung literally means "out/up-lifting." In Hegel, the term Aufhebung has the apparently contradictory implications of both preserving and changing. In sublation, a term or concept is both preserved and changed through its dialectical interplay with another term or concept. Sublation is the motor by which the dialectic functions.

Why need a dissertation sample? Did it really help?

Most students are “first timers” and need thorough and expert guidance from someone skilled. What’s more, teachers may not be available to the students all the time, and in fact, may have even less time at the end of the semester. dissertations sample can be a blessing for students because most students are not familiar with the writing and formatting skills of thesis research and writing. dissertation sample can be used… Continue

Digital Technologies: A Strange and Wonderful Curriculum

Passing A Strange and Wonderful Curriculum

Notes and comment on Yi-Fu Tuan 1993, Passing Strange and Wonderful

Can one create an e-curriculum, a montage of quotes, via blogging that in turn helps us to consider Canadian curriculum theorizing as something strange and wonderful, both at the same time? How might we engage such ditigal performances?
