Resumen. El presente artículo corresponde a una experiencia pedagógica implementada al interior de un programa de formación de profesores/as en artes visuales, cuyo futuro contexto de desempeño laboral son los niveles de enseñanza secundaria en el contexto escolar chileno. Su objetivo principal es reflexionar teóricamente en torno al cuerpo y sus posibilidades pedagógicas, a partir de la implementación de estrategias de enseñanza y aprendizaje de las artes visuales que involucran la practica corporal como dispositivo didáctico. Bajo una metodología de Proyectos de Aprendizaje Expresivos define tres talleres teóricos/prácticos en torno al cuerpo al interior de un programa formación de profesores/as en artes visuales en Chile. Tras la implementación de cada taller, describe la reflexión de la práctica corporal con el ámbito teórico de la política del cuerpo, la corporeización de la identidad profesional y la cognición corporeizada. A modo de conclusión, permite reflexionar en torno al tránsito de una enseñanza disciplinar de las artes visuales hacia su integración interdisciplinar, entrelazando el ámbito de las humanidades con la cognición humana corporeizada. Finalmente sugiere tres talleres interdisciplinares que entrelazan literatura, teatro y cine, a partir del lenguaje y expresión corporal para programas de formación inicial de profesores/as en artes visuales.  Palabras clave: cuerpo; artes visuales; teoría del arte; formación de docentes.  Abstract: This article is based on a pedagogical experience implemented within a visual arts teacher training program, whose future work context will be the secondary education levels in the Chilean school context. Its main objective is to theoretically reflect about the body and its pedagogical possibilities. Since the implementation of a program of visual art teaching and learning that includes the body as a didactic dispositive. Under a methodology of a Learning-Expressive Project were defined three theoretical practical workshops about the body within a visual art teachers training program in Chile. After every workshop it was described the reflection of corporal practice with the theoretical scope of the body politics, the embodiment of professional identity and embodied cognition. As a conclusion, it allows us to reflect on the transition from a disciplinary teaching of the visual arts towards its interdisciplinary integration, intertwining the field of the humanities with embodied human cognition. Finally, three interdisciplinary workshops are suggested that intertwine literature, theater and cinema, based on body language and expression for visual arts teachers initial training programs.  Keywords: body; visual arts; art theory; teachers training

The study examined the challenges faced by tutors in the teaching of the visual arts education (VAE) in national teachers’ colleges (NTCs) in Uganda. The study adopted a qualitative approach where tutors’ and pre-service visual arts teachers’ (PVATs) views about the challenges facing them in the teaching and learning in visual arts were expressed. Data were collected from two pur­posively selected NTCs, and ten tutors. Yet, the 48 second year PVATs who participated in this study, were randomly selected from the many who were available. The researchers used interviews, document reviews and focus group discussions to collect data. The findings show that the challenges facing tutors in the teaching of visual arts have a great impact on what PVATs learn. Some visual art disciplines have too much content to be covered within a short period of two years. There is a general lack of teaching resources, such as art materials, tools and equipment, textbooks, and inadequate teaching space. The researchers recommended the reduction of the content of some visual art disciplines to fit the available time; provide art materials, tools and equipment as well as adequate teaching space which would allow the use of more appropriate teaching methods which would avail tutors with the opportunity to perform to their expectations in visual arts teaching.

The body is an important starting point concept throughout deconstruction, reconstruction and recontextualization of the body’s concept. This change of focus in research that stems from the results to the process of contextualization means that the researcher should engage with texts or images, as they are reflected in the process of cultural development and exchange, through which decontextualization is exhibited. This article deals with the concept of new materialism and endeavors to explain, how discourses come to matter. It examines the issue of how new materialism tackles visual art in innovative ways – through the intersections of artistic practice, art-as-research, and philosophical analysis. Such definitions as Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s “a bodily being”, Julia Kristeva’s “the abjection of the self”, Arjun Appadurai’s “the aesthetics of decontextualization” and “singularized object”, Igor Kopytoff’s “the cultural biography of things”, and Nicholas Thomas’ “entangled objects”, constitute the methodological frameworks of our research. We will analyze such approaches as Hans Belting’s concept of body as a “living medium”, Giorgio Agamben’s view on body as an object of commodification and Jacques Derrida’s “trust in painting”. An attempt to understand body reconceptualization and deconstruction through the categories of new materialism is the most important aim of this article. Karen Barad’s concept of intra-action (that implies a clear-cut subject-object distinction) is crucial to our research, which underlines that bodies have no inherent boundaries and properties and that the analyzed representations are “material-discursive phenomena”. The artworks under consideration will be confronted with a diagnosis that, according to Barad, all bodies come to matter thanks the intra-activity and its performativity. The case studies of Svajonė Stanikienė and Paulius Stanikas, Evaldas Jansas and Eglė Rakauskaitė works show how the image of the body is developed through the processes of their deconstruction and decontextualization.

The teachers training of Physical Education thematizes many debates and reflections of educational profile, political and epistemological. As a new mode in the initial training of physical education teachers , distance education ( DE ) raises old and new questions about the body culture at this time of teacher education. The main question in this article is: how is the process of pedagogical mediation in subjects related to bodily practices in Physical Education Courses through Distance Learning in Goiás? The goal of this research is to comprehend how the knowledge related to the subjects regard bodily practices occurs and it is mediated in the process of teaching and learning on Physical Education Courses through distance. A quanti-qualitative research was made using the method historical and dialectical material and also document analysis, observations, interviews, focus groups to collect information and submit them to a triangulation of data. The results indicate that the knowledge was poor of systematic knowledge and with little teaching time.

School-related gender-based violence (SRGBV) is highly prevalent worldwide which calls for a range of early prevention and innovative solutions. The presence of GBV in the school context is well-documented and it highlights the importance of building competencies of teachers and other school professionals for recognizing and intervening in SRGBV cases. This paper analyses the current and future teachers' training needs, and their level of preparedness for detecting and intervening in cases of GBV in the school context, with the objective of developing a targeted training program. The participants in this study were 597 current and future teachers and other school professionals from Croatia, Finland, and Spain. An ad-hoc built questionnaire was distributed in the three participating countries. Results show that the interest in receiving training is related to the perceived importance of coping with GBV in the (future) work and that the main topics of the training should focus on addressing parties of SRGBV, guidelines for prevention and intervention in schools as well as online GBV. These findings were similar in three countries, and they provided user-generated topics and tools that served as a guideline for the development of a training program that aims to increase the knowledge about SRGBV and to develop skills for coping with GBV in the school context regarding victims, bystanders and perpetrators.

Opening Up

This article explores the diversity of British literary responses to Diaghilev's project, emphasising the way in which the subject matter and methodologies of Diaghilev's modernism were sometimes unexpectedly echoed in expressions of contemporary British writing. These discussions emerge both in writing about Diaghilev's work, and, more discretely, when references to the Russian Ballet find their way into the creative writing of the period, serving to anchor the texts in a particular cultural milieu or to suggest contemporary aesthetic problems in the domain of literary aesthetics developing in the period. Figures from disparate fields, including literature, music and the visual arts, brought to their criticism of the Ballets Russes their individual perspectives on its aesthetics, helping to consolidate the sense of its importance in contributing to the inter-disciplinary flavour of modernism across the arts. In the field of literature, not only did British writers evaluate the Ballets Russes in terms of their own poetics, their relationship to experimentation in the novel and in drama, they developed an increasing sense of the company's place in dance history, its choreographic innovations offering material for wider discussions, opening up the potential for literary modernism's interest in impersonality and in the ‘unsayable’, discussions of the body, primitivism and gender.

We investigated emotional conflict in an educational context with an emotional body–word Stroop paradigm, examining whether the N450 (a late fronto-central phasic negative event-related potential signature) and slow potential (SP) effects could be evoked in trainee teachers. The N450 effect is characterized by topography and negative polarity of an incongruent minus congruent difference potential, and the SP effect has positive polarity (incongruent minus congruent difference potential). Positive and negative body language examples were obtained from pupils in an actual school context, and emotional words were selected. Compound stimuli were presented, each comprising a congruent or incongruent word displayed across a body image. Event-related potentials were recorded while participants judged body expression valence. Reaction times were longer and accuracies were lower for the incongruent compared to the congruent condition. The N450 component amplitude in the incongruent condition was more negative than in the congruent condition. Results showed a behavioral interference effect and an N450 effect for trainee teachers in this context, thus indicating that the body–word task was efficient in assessing emotional conflict in an educational context, and trainee teachers' perception of body expressions of students could be influenced by emotional signals. The findings further the understanding of emotional conflict in an educational context.

The Relationship

Art, History, and Postwar Fiction explores the ways in which novelists responded to the visual arts from the aftermath of the Second World War up to the present day. If art had long served as a foil to enable novelists to reflect on their craft, this book argues that in the postwar period, novelists turned to the visual arts to develop new ways of conceptualizing the relationship between literature and history. The sense that the novel was becalmed in the end of history was pervasive in the postwar decades. In seeming to bring modernism to a climax whilst repeating its foundational gestures, visual art also raised questions about the relationship between continuity and change in the development of art. In chapters on Samuel Beckett, William Gaddis, John Berger, and W. G. Sebald, and shorter discussions of writers like Doris Lessing, Kathy Acker, and Teju Cole, this book shows that writing about art was often a means of commenting on historical developments of the period: the Cold War, the New Left, the legacy of the Holocaust. Furthermore, it argues that forms of postwar visual art, from abstraction to the readymade, offered novelists ways of thinking about the relationship between form and history that went beyond models of reflection or determination. By doing so, this book also argues that attention to interactions between literature and art can provide critics with new ways to think about the relationship between literature and history beyond reductive oppositions between formalism and historicism, autonomy and context.
