The concept denotes the ideological and mental formation of the individual as well as the individual's own shaping of an identity. Learning beyond Cognition expands on the notion of 'Building' and the current debate about citizenship education. The book outlines contemporary educational policies and practices in Europe and other Western countries. The authors analyse dominating discourses and learning practices to identify their social and cultural 'grounding' and potentials. The authors are experienced international scholars. This book is aimed to become an essential resource for researchers, teachers, students and policy-makers who address the current challenges to learning.
