Disruptive exisential experiences and existential expressions in a course on climate change

This dataset consists of a transcript of a workshop during a course on climate change for students in Belgium. In this course students engaged in a variety of conversations, where the teacher employed alternative conversational approaches. The idea behind this course is that facilitating novel modes of thinking and talking may result in novel approaches to addressing the climate crisis and that this, in turn, has the potential to give rise to alternative future scenarios. The transcript has been analysed to gain insight into the educative potential of disruptive existential experiences. The excerpt is part of a larger dataset. This entire dataset for the course consisted of an audio-recorded and transcribed interview with the teacher, documents (a description of the summer school and selected teaching materials such as a conversation guideline) and, field notes and transcripts of video-recorded observations of 3 classroom activities, each lasting between two and four hours. The latter were spoken in Dutch and afterwards translated into English.
