Lisa Högkil
Doctoral student at Uppsala University.
In her thesis, Lisa explores how knowledge and learning relate to the body, space and time. By following families within the elites of sports and classical music, she aims to capture how they relate to the form of their respective learning practices, in order to provide a counterpoint to the contemporary development of schools marked by digitization, efficiency, and detachment from time and space, body, and physical interaction.
