  • Exploring Participation and Play in Higher Education Jj
    TOTAL PLAY! EXPLORING PARTICIPATION AND PLAY IN HIGHER EDUCATION J J LEAN PhD 2019 TOTAL PLAY! EXPLORING PARTICIPATION AND PLAY IN HIGHER EDUCATION JOHN JAMES LEAN A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Education and Social Research Institute Manchester Metropolitan University 2019 Abstract This thesis connects the concepts of participation and play in higher education (HE), both of which are familiar themes in education literature. The former is typically seen as a ‘problem’ to be solved (i.e. widening participation), and the latter as a potential ‘solution’ (i.e. games-based learning). I challenge this conception by arguing that the logic of problems and solutions is a symptom of a flawed neoliberal discourse that overlooks much of what happens in universities. Education is often treated as a game, and this metaphor can be developed further by asking how participants actually play it. To do this, I conceptualise play and participation as situated social processes that must be understood in qualitative terms rather than on the basis of impact or results. Using a novel model of the ‘magic circle’ drawn from Huizinga (1949) and Lave and Wenger (1991), and a playful pragmatist methodology influenced by Dewey (1929), I explore the question of how play and participation can influence each other to transform HE. My research data comes from my work with a typical ‘widening participation’ cohort on a foundation degree in Education Studies. Twelve students took part in ten group interviews on the topics of play and educational participation, and I engaged in critical reflective teaching and research practice as I designed playful learning activities for a cohort of eighty students, producing field notes from observations and a reflective teaching journal.

  • Towers Rules
    Towers A two-player board game by Dale Emery OBJECT The object of the game is to build and own towers with the most floors. A tower is a stack of one or more floors. You build a new tower by moving an existing tower on top of another existing tower. You own each tower that has your color floor on top. When you own a tower, you own all of the floors in the tower, regardless of color. GAME MATERIALS 64 Floors—32 black and 32 white (or any two distinct colors). Floors are flat, stackable pieces of uniform shape and size. Checkers or poker chips work well. 1 Game Board represents the downtown area of a small city, arranged in an 8x8 grid of squares, each representing one city block. Each block is large enough to hold a tower comfortably. A chess board or checkers board works well, though the squares need not alternate colors. PREPARATION Determine who plays each color. One player—called Black—plays the black towers. The other player—called White—plays the white towers. Place the floors on the downtown grid, one floor per block, alternating colors (in a checkerboard pattern). Each block now has a tower that is one floor high. PLAY Players alternate turns. Black plays first. On each turn you build a tower, then demolish any towers that become isolated from the tallest tower (see Demolition, below). Building a tower. To build a tower, move one of your towers onto an existing tower. This builds a new, taller tower. Because a floor of your color is on top, you now own the new tower and all of the floors in it.
