Abstract

In many ways the ideas in this book build towards the touchstones in the previous chapter. In the meantime some educators have already been drawn to wild pedagogies and found the touchstones helpful. Samples of their stories are presented in this chapter, for a couple of reasons. First, these are examples of individuals who are openly re-negotiating their practices, and are actually making changes—they are walking the talk. We think that exemplars, or concrete examples can do work, too. They can help people see themselves through images of others making changes. And they can be inspiring. Second, wild pedagogies are relevant to educators in a wide variety of settings and this chapter has, thus, included stories from a range of educators and educational settings.
