Knowledge, Creativity and FailureFalling Short

Abstract

[Teachers are rightly sceptical of the idea of failure—a great deal of their professional effort is after all expended on getting students to avoid failure. This chapter, though, explores what might happen if teachers embraced a pedagogy of failure. What might such teaching and learning look like? And how might failure be understood as constitutive of knowledge? Following these guiding questions, and augmented by a case study of a modest attempt to integrate failure into a higher education course, this chapter argues that allowing students to learn through failure may represent a new way forward for creative arts pedagogy.]
