In After Pedagogy, Paul Lynch opens a space for the ongoing development of an 'inspired adhoccery' over the course of a teacher's life in the classroom. Because we are always in the inescapably contingent position of teaching after whatever has been taught and learned before, we can never know in advance, either via our training in theory or our prior experience in the classroom, how best to prepare for or respond to what happens in our next class. This is not a crisis, Lynch argues; it is the condition that underlies the experience of all teaching. - Richard E. Miller, coauthor of Habits of the Creative Mind
