What can we learn from COVID-19 as a form of public pedagogy?
This paper aims to investigate the corona-crisis as a large-scale, unplanned and unintended global experiment of ‘public pedagogy’. An investigation is focused on touching upon emergent questions such as: What does our experience of the crisis brought ...

Inhabiting the Anthropocene. Aesthetics of Everyday Life in Times of Crisis
Reconciling the seemingly incompatible concepts of the Anthropocene and the everyday, this paper argues and demonstrates that (1) despite the disconcerting effects of its truly planetary scale, the Anthropocene is not absent or invisible in the realm of ...

Adaptation, Activism, and the Looming Climate Disaster†
Abstract It is likely that the process of global climate change will continue to accelerate. There is a lack of political will to confront the problem and the consequences for humanity — including widespread suffering and institutional destabilization — will be disastrous. How should educators respond to a catastrophic future?

Revisiting traditional educational practices in the age of digitalization
During the period of lockdown both students and teachers experienced immersion in the digital environment to the full, what allowed actualizing the so-called “dark” sides of organization of the educational process; those metamorphoses, which traditional

In this paper, we ask what schools and universities as place‐based public institutions can do to serve our youth in effectively responding to eco‐anxiety and building their capacities to learn to surf the unrelenting waves of change. To assist in this endeavour, we draw on the journeys that brought three young doctoral candidates to study geography ...

Memory-mapping support for reducer hyperobjects [PDF]
Reducer hyperobjects (reducers) provide a linguistic abstraction for dynamic multithreading that allows different branches of a parallel program to maintain coordinated local views of the same nonlocal variable. In this paper, we investigate how thread-local memory mapping (TLMM) can be used to improve the performance of reducers.

Efficient Race Detection for Reducer Hyperobjects [PDF]
A multithreaded Cilk program that is ostensibly deterministic may nevertheless behave nondeterministically due to programming errors in the code. For a Cilk program that uses reducers—a general reduction mechanism supported in various Cilk dialects—such programming errors are especially challenging to debug, because the errors can expose the ...
