Forging Balance in a Video Game – When Gestell Meets the Force: Star Wars: A New Hope for Visual Pedagogies in a Galaxy Far, Far Away
This article examines how Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order serves as a case study for Martin Heidegger’s concepts of Enframing ( Gestell ) and poiesis . By focusing on the journey of former Padawan Cal Kestis – who suppresses his spiritual identity amidst a technologically dominated Empire – the discussion highlights Heidegger’s argument that technology, when approached purely instrumentally, can reduce reality to a resource for exploitation. The nar…

Virtual Reality ( vr ) is widely purported as an effective strategy for learning practical skills across disciplines such as medicine and sport, but it has yet to be fully exploited in relation to education. Learning how to engage pedagogically with students calls for sophisticated and nuanced relational skills, but opportunities to practice these with ‘real’ learners are often hard to access. This is especially so for students who are learning h…

Both science-fiction media and academics predicted that once virtua…

Articles immediately started pouring in; within weeks, the journal's contributions had been recognized by institutions such as the World Health Organization, the US National Library of Medic…

Collective writing: Introspective reflections on current experience
Sonja Arndt, Michael Peters, Marek Tesar Introspection is a key concept in epistemology, since introspective knowledge is often thought to be particularly secure, maybe even immune to skeptical doubt. Introspective knowledge is also often held to be more immediate or direct than sensory knowledge. Both of these putative features of introspection have been cited in support of the idea that introspective knowledge can serve as a ground or foundatio…
