Abstract

The aim of this paper is to explore some open conditions and trajectories for thinking about models of learning facilitation in the light of non-linear understandings, typical of the posthuman thought. The posthuman framework allows for the thematization of a plurality of methods of educational intervention that decentralize that humanist logic that operates through oppositional and hierarchical models, shifting attention toward “practical provocations” that highlight the vitality of the material and the non-human. Grounding this proposal in the expert work of those scholars who are offering systematizations of this field of study, the article brings together examples of some empirical experiences to illustrate certain applications of feminist new material, posthumanist and postqualitative approaches to education.
