This book offers reflections from Arts-Based Educational Research (ABER) scholars who, since 2005, were awarded the American Educational Research Association ABER Special Interest Group's Outstanding Dissertation Award. The book includes essays from ten awardees who, across diverse artistic disciplines, share how their ABER careers evolve and succeed—inspiring insights into the possibilities of ABER. It also examines the essential role of mentorship in the academy that supports and expands ABER scholarship. Drawing from dissertation exemplars in the field, this book allows readers to look at how ABER scholars learn with the world while creatively researching and teaching in innovative ways “This text is remarkable for the immense diversity of situating creativity as inquiry in educational research from multiple cultural, theoretical, and substantive perspectives. The scholars in this text demonstrate the interdisciplinary understanding and enactment of Arts-Based Educational Research, thus allowing the work to exceed the boundaries of education in generative ways. This text is also a pedagogical text that can be used to teach multiple graduate-level classes within education and beyond. Most importantly, this text creates a fertile ground for cognitive, affective, and spiritual shifts that are transformative, offering the reader possibilities for inquiry that exceed traditional expectations.” — Kakali Bhattacharya, Professor. Qualitative Research Program. Research, Evaluation, Measurement. College of Education, University of Florida “Arts-Based Educational Research Trajectories provides a historically-situated, intergenerational account of ABER, calling attention to how it has – over the last 30 years – forged its space in the academy and among researchers. The essays highlight the art, creativity, and scholarship of ABER as contributors engage storytelling, textual and visual inquiry and reflect on their ABER journeys. ABER Trajectories is the book I needed as a budding ABER scholar, and I am overjoyed to know it is in the world now, further cementing the legitimacy already known to and felt by the scholars who embrace it!” — Qiana Cutts, PhD, Mississippi State University. Arts- Based Educational Research Chair, 2021-2023.

This edited volume provides a venue for scholars whose work challenges the typical, static conceptions and methods of studying creativity. More specifically, the book serves as an effort to introduce more dynamic definitions, conceptions, and approaches for studying creativity in the context of educational practice. By doing so, it feeds the strong contemporary need for more dynamic conceptions of creativity in educational settings. This is particularly important given the fast evolution of modern society and the widespread consensus that efforts to develop creative potential should be democratized -- extending well beyond the boundaries of the gifted subset and the walls of the classroom. This work recognizes that more dynamic perspectives on creativity are necessary for understanding its complexity, value, and meaning in educational contexts.

This book shows the continuing importance of art education. Art education attracts students who see multiple meanings and justifications for the worth of that education. Their engagement in art education is not limited to the uncertain prospects for jobs or routes into employment in the arts. Fürst and Nylander approach art education through a rich array of empirical examples derived from Swedish folk high school programs in music, visual arts, and creative writing. Based on an analytical framework of pragmatic sociology, the book allows the reader to understand the competences and critical capacities held by students and teachers. The book challenges the dominant public perception of art education and broadens our understanding of what it is good for. The Value of Art Education is essential reading for those defending the status of this vital sector of education, offering a deeper understanding of why people engage, what they gain, and the social importance of the arts. Henrik Fürst earned his PhD degree in Sociology from Uppsala University, Sweden. He is an Associate Professor in Education at Stockholm University. Erik Nylander is lecturing at the folk high school teacher program at Linköping University, Sweden, where he also holds a faculty position as Associate Professor in Education. .

This contributed volume book aims at discussing transdisciplinary approaches to address common problems. By working transdisciplinarily, researchers coming from different disciplines can work jointly using a shared conceptual framework bringing together disciplinary-specific theories and concepts. There are numerous barriers that can obstruct effective communication between different cultures, communities, religions and geographies. This book shows that through bringing together different disciplines, researchers not only can surpass these barriers but can effectively produce new venues of thought that can positively affect the development and evolution of research and education. The book discusses new and emerging applications of knowledge produced by transdisciplinary efforts and covers the interplay of many disciplines, including agriculture, economics, mathematics, engineering, industry, information technology, marketing, nanoscience, neuroscience, space exploration, human-animal relationships, among others. Consequently, it also covers the relationship between art and science, as one of the most remarkable transdisciplinary approaches that paves the way for new methods in engineering, design, architecture and many other fields. .
