Miguel Angel Garcia-Bocanegra

Miguel Angel Ovies-Bocanegra is a PhD student in the Department of Learning Sciences and a Master’s student in the Statistics and Data Science Program at Northwestern University. His research contributions co-designs and develops place-based, ethical forms of intergenerational, complex socio-ecological systems that poetically cultivate human and more-than-human learning alongside the natural world. 

Miguel Angel explores the interactional, cultural qualification and quantification of the axiological life courses and epistemic production of people and how they ontologically mature across nature. By shaping educational environments that cater towards emergent, place-based learning while focusing on the bi-directional interplay between moment-to-moment, micro-level activity and metaphysical frameworks, Miguel Angel critically complicates the varied densities and gravitational forces of temporality. His research agenda focuses on the dynamic grammar of human learning and pedagogy across the science of poetics, educational assessment and sociotechnical systems, and climate science.
