Call for papers | Writing in the face of cultural changes, 2/2022

2022-05-03

Anthropologically speaking, culture is the whole ensemble of the material, social, and spiritual manifestations of a people, in relation to various historical periods or environmental conditions. In this sense, and including the heritage of acquired knowledge and experience, culture contributes to the formation of each individual both intellectually and in the finding of his or her role in society. During the last two years, the Covid-19 pandemic has hit our society. We are now seeing its immediate consequences, but its long-term effects on individual and collective life paths we cannot imagine. Hence, the need to start to design again, rethink, restructure, and re-form, studying the changes that have occurred and updating our skills. Under this point of view, handwriting and language are a real expression of society and its evolution.

This issue of Graphos aims to present the most current updates on pedagogy, didactics and problems of learning handwriting, on the lexical semantics of today’s youth, on the most widespread and functional social images, and also on the difficulties of practicing handwriting – all of them often influenced by the digital society.

In this second issue, papers can focus on theories and/or methodologies; on pedagogy and education; on didactics; on experimental approaches, on condition that they respond to the topic of the call for papers: Writing in the face of cultural changes.

The journal also includes a section devoted to free-topic contributions, provided they fall within the broad and plural field of the educational sciences.

Submission deadline (via the journal’s OJS platform): Sept. 15, 2022

Issue publication: December 2022
