Abstract: | We discuss Konstantinos Alexakos, Jayson Jones and Victor Rodriguez’s hermeneutic study of formation and function of kinship-like
relationships among inner city male students of color in a college physics classroom. From our Critical Complexity Science
framework we first discuss the reading erlebnisse of students laughing at and with each other as something that immediately captured our attention in being transformative
of the classroom. We continue by exploring their classroom and research experience as an emergent structure modifying their
collective as well as their individual experiences. As we analyze both the classroom and the research space as a complex system,
we reflect on the instructor/students interactions characterized by an asymmetrical “power” relationship. From our analysis
we propose to consider the zone of proximal development as the constantly emerging and transforming person experience (erlebnisse and
erfahrung). |
