SUMMARY:Learning from mushrooms [in person]
DESCRIPTION:Mushrooms are the fungal fruit of mycelium networks\, the 
 underground fungal networks that connect and facilitate communication 
 between plants and trees. Following a recent expansion of social science 
 research into how these networks work and can shape how we understand 
 social phenomena (Tsing\, 2015\; Hathaway\, 2022\; Harraway\, 2016\; 
 Kimmerer 2013\, 2021)\, this session explores what mushrooms can teach us 
 about teaching and learning in post-secondary.\n\nThis research 
 demonstrates these networks' complex\, interdependent and dynamic natures 
 that can offer educators many important lessons. Learning from Mushrooms 
 looks at interdisciplinary research about what mushrooms and mycelium can 
 help us examine in how we conceptualize education. This session will focus 
 more on the philosophies of education and teaching\, and less on the 
 applied or practical approaches to instruction and 
 assessment.\n\nReferences:\n\nHaraway\, D. J. (2016). Staying with the
