Abstract

This study examines the visceral experience of ethical responsibility and its importance to the dynamic of pedagogical relationships formed in the non-elite periphery of institutional schooling. It was conducted as part of the broader Redesigning Pedagogies in the North (RPiN) project, which brought together teachers from non-elite secondary schools on the geographic and socioeconomic fringe of an Australian capital city. The RPiN project supported teacher action research into the out-of-school lives of non-elite students, and the design of pedagogies and curricula that make use of lifeworld ways of knowing to connect these students with schooling. This study focuses specifically on the ethical dynamics of pedagogical relationships in contexts where there is increased likelihood of conflict between dominant knowledge practices privileged at school and knowledge practices valued in students' homes and communities.
