SUMMARY:Olfactory Research Notes: Sensory Literacies and Children’s Reading (online)
DESCRIPTION:Sign up: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/olfactory-research-notes-sensory-literacies-and-childrens-reading-tickets-1986361038337?lid=zj5izzdshlrl \n– \n\n\nResearcher Radel James Gacumo joins the IAO to share his research into early childhood literacy and sensory studies. Online. \n\n\n\n\nThis talk explores how sensory literacies can deepen our understanding of children’s engagement with reading. Drawing on his doctoral research\, Radel James Gacumo discusses how multisensory and multimodal texts\, including olfaction-enhanced digital books\, shape children’s embodied participation\, meaning-making\, and affective responses in early literacy contexts. The session highlights how sensory experiences can support more inclusive and responsive reading environments and invites educators and researchers to rethink reading as a multisensory\, relational practice. \nThis presentation will be followed by a question and answer session with attendees. \n\n\n\n\nTakeaways and Learning Points: \n\n️Multisensory practices for child educators\nStrategies for reading engagement\nIntroduction to multisensory and multimodal texts and their use\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT RADEL JAMES GACUMO \nRadel James Gacumo is a researcher in early childhood literacy and sensory studies based at the University of Stavanger\, Norway. His work examines how multisensory and multimodal texts shape young children’s engagement\, meaning-making\, and experiences of inclusion. He develops Critical Sensory Multimodal Literacy\, a framework that brings together sensory studies\, multimodality\, and critical literacy to understand reading as an embodied and socially situated practice. His research spans sensory literacies\, children’s literature\, and olfaction-enhanced reading in early education. \n\n\n\n\nABOUT OLFACTORY RESEARCH NOTES \nOlfactory Research Notes is a lecture series presented by the Institute for Art and Olfaction that highlights important research done in the field of olfaction\, directly from the scientists\, researchers\, academics\, and artists who do it. \n\n\n\n\nATTENDANCE AND REFUND POLICY \nThis is an online class that will take place on Zoom.
