Six Questions with Dr. Harper Keenan
This Pride Month we are celebrating the work of Dr. Harper Keenan, the Robert Quartermain Professor of Gender and Sexuality Research in Education at UBC. Dr. Keenan’s research analyzes how adults teach children to make sense of the social world. Much of his work investigates the management, or scripting, of children’s knowledge, and ways that educators and their students might work together to interrupt that process and imagine something different. We asked Dr. Keenan six questions to learn more about his work.
