Post-philosophies inspire the teachinglearning of qualitative inquiry

This chapter focuses on the ways post-philosophies inspire the teaching/learning of qualitative inquiry. It builds on the author’s scholarship on speculative pedagogies of qualitative inquiry, writings by others on qualitative research pedagogies inspired by post-philosophies, and focus-group conversations with graduate students from several qualitative research courses. The chapter is structured around these four aspects: 1) un/structuring; 2) playing and experimenting; 3) befuddling together; and 4) un/certainty and un/mastery. Readers are invited to sit with these sections of writing, both ideas from theorists and philosophers as well as conversations with the students. The hope is that the writing will provoke ideas, thinking and (new) ways of thinking and doing pedagogy(ies) of (qualitative) inquiry in your context.
