2. Disembodied Minds Paul Driver TICLinguas 2010
“School learning is often about disembodied minds learning
outside any context of decisions and actions.
When people learn something as a cultural process their
bodies are involved because cultural learning always involves
having specific experiences that facilitate learning, not just
memorizing words.” (James Gee 2004)
