ABSTRACT

This chapter outlines what is educational in educational relationality. It explains the role of education in the theory of educational relationality. The chapter starts with Gert Biesta's location of education to a gap between educational subjects, but it is argues that, for educational relationality, it is more relevant to locate education to the activity of education. It explains the transformation, the co-concept of intelligibility is introduced as a posthuman learning. The chapter begins with the education is firmly connected to the purpose of a student acquiring knowledge. Intelligibility that involves human relata differs from intelligibility involving bat relata. In turn, bat relata, as part of intelligibility, is distinctly different than rock relata. Intelligibility is the transforming intra-relationality, independent of it happening quickly or slowly. The evolutionary and biological development of the human body is a matter of materiality; thus, the human materiality is agential.
