Description

Object-based Learning and Well-being: Exploring Material Connections provides a comprehensive analysis of the combined benefits of working with material culture and curated collections for learning and well-being. This book brings together experts from around the world to explore the significance of curated collections in structured cultural interventions that can have both educational and positive impacts on mental health, sensory impairments, and overall student and teacher well-being. The authors examine how material culture relates to questions of identity and belonging, particularly in relation to marginalisation, colonialism, and forced displacement. This book is a valuable resource for academics and students studying object-based learning, museums, heritage, health, and well-being, as well as practitioners working in higher education or the cultural, heritage, and health sectors. By exploring the connection between material culture and learning, this book offers insights into how curated collections can be used to positively address important social issues.
