School alienation – Theoretical approaches and educational research (2018, background): “…accompanied by feelings of estrangement and isolation with regard to individual and social learning processes, defining the term as the inability ‘to engage or contribute in ways which are meaningful and productive for the realisation of [one’s] potential and learning requirements’ (Mann 2005, 43).”
Four domains of students’ sense of belonging to university (2019, background): “Mann argued that this feeling of being less engaged, less related, and isolated in a classroom situation can be reduced by improving communication in the educational environment (Mann 2005).”
The role of engagement in inspiring teaching and learning (2007, background): “Mann ( 2005 ) explored how ‘failures of communication’ could result in misunderstandings and moreover even teachers with good intentions to establish closer relationships could create cultural practices which reinforced divides rather than bridged them.”
