Practical Wisdom and Democratic Education “This is a thoughtful and richly researched book that examines and fully explores the issues around access and inclusion. Having taught mature and non-traditional students in fine art, the case studies resonate with my experience as a teacher. The conclusions provide excellent practical advice and recommendations for art and design staff and future Access to HE students.” —Sam Ingleson, University of Salford, UK “This book deserves to be read widely by students, teacher and researchers. It offers a refreshing, easily accessible account that places a clear lens onto the learning journey of four mature students studying for degrees in art and design. The pages open up an important discussion on the experience of often marginalized and silenced voices; voices that matter. The passion and commitment the authors have for empowering their learners is evident throughout. And touching upon a mix of philosophical understanding, they expose the power of democratic education to transform the classroom and transform lives.” —Vicky Duckworth, Edge Hill University, UK
