Andrew Gibbons, Professor at the School of Education at Auckland University of Technology, joins us on this episode to discuss his work in relation to philosophy, policy, science fiction, and care. His research creatively and distinctively focuses on philosophy of education and growing teacher education programs that engage academic and community relationships beyond disciplinary boundaries. Andrew is involved in several professional organizations, including Association of Visual Pedagogies and Philosophy of Education Society of Australasia (PESA), and was recently named a PESA Fellow.
