Ou main s a ing poin is o de ine ci izenship as a con ex ual phenomenon ha en ails an idea o con inuous lea ning aking place in di e se ways. We d aw on he no ion o cul u al ci izenship sugges ed by Ge a d Delan y (2003)and he cul u al app oach o lea ning p oposed by Je ome B une (1996). In bo h, cul u e is unde s ood as con inuous meaning-making, whe e ideas a e cons uc ed in in e ac ion wi h o he s by using and ans o ming he a ailable cul u al esou ces. These no ions guide ou examina ion o local ideas o ci izenship and lea ning p ocesses in he pa icula con ex o he u al communi ies unde s udy. The no ion o cul u al ci izenship (Delan y 2003; S e enson, 2012) app oaches ci izenship om he poin o iew o socio-cul u al iden i y. Delan y (2003) di e en ia es he no ion o cul u al ci izenship om wha he calls disciplina y ci izenship, which encompasses o mal membe ship in a poli y, usually a s a e. Acco ding o him, cul u al ci izenship di e s om bo h libe al and communi a ian ideas; a he , he sugges s a cul u al a ena o ci izenship whe e indi idual and social lea ning in e wine, and whe e belie s, alues and cul u e a e p ese ed and shaped. Mo eo e , 200 T. H. BANANUKA ET AL. cul u al ci izenship is highly con ex ual and is shaped in spon aneous ways h ough coping wi h li es yles and su i al.

In cul u al ci izenship, hese lea ning le els in e - wine in a p ocess ha Delan y (ibid.) e e s o as he cons uc ion o ci izenship. He e, ci izenship is unde s ood as con inuously e ol ing and, hus, also ha ing he po en ial o ans o m. D awing on Delan y’s no ion o cul u al ci izenship, we sc u inize ci izenship as a lea ning p ocess aking place in he space be ween he indi idual and communi ies. Ou s a ing poin is ha u al communi- ies in Uganda p esen a con ex o cons uc ing ci izenship h ough in o mal lea ning ha occu s in he cou se o pa icipa ion and in e ac ing wi h o he s. Addi ionally, he cons uc ion o ci izenship aking place in a pa icula communi y is in e wined wi h cul u al meanings, especially hose a icula ed in he ocabula ies used when ci izenship is discussed, and he belie s and alues ha guide ideas o wha is ega ded as good ci izenship o which i is wo h aspi ing. Depa ing om he no ion o cul u al ci izenship as a lea ning p ocess in which ci izenship is cons uc ed and ans o med, we aim o examine how he idea o lea ning i sel is unde s ood by communi y membe s. Whils he e a e plen y o di e se heo e ical accoun s o indi idual (Kolb, 1981) and social (Bandu a, 1977) lea ning, less esea ch has been done on people’s own explana ions o wha hey conside as lea ning and how lea ning akes place.

Whils B une mainly discusses olk pedagogies in he eache -lea ne ela ion- ship, he also connec s he no ion o olk pedagogies wi h a wide ‘cul u al app oach’ o he mind and lea ning. He discusses he cul u al app oach in con as o he ‘compu a ional’ one whe e mind and lea ning a e gea ed a ound in o ma ion p ocessing. The cul u al app oach emphasizes ha lea ning akes place in cul u al se ings ha p o ide ools o cons uc- ion o meanings (ibid.: 4). Cul u al meanings play a ole in how people unde s and he mind, lea ning and, u he , ideal socie y and he ideal ci izen (ibid.: 5). Acco ding o B une (1996: 63), people o en hold bo h ex e nalis and in e nalis heo ies o lea ning. The o me ocuses on how lea ning can be suppo ed om ou side and he la e on how lea ning is based on he in en ional s a es o lea ne s, hus, no only e e ing o cogni- i e capabili ies, bu also o belie s, wishes and emo ions (Ili´c&Bojo i´c, 2016). Unde hese wo dimensions, B une (1996: 53) u he p oposes ou models o lea ne s’ minds which can guide eaching and also illus- a e a ange o ideas conce ning lea ne s and lea ning in gene al. These models pe cei e lea ne s as imi a o s, as subjec o didac ic exposu e, as hinke s and as knowledgeable. When a lea ne is pe cei ed as an imi a o , lea ning is mainly seen as ollowing he models p o ided by eache s and men o s, and he skills and knowledge lea ned a e aken- o -g an ed and nei he nego ia ed no subjec ed o c i ical e lec ion. In a simila ein, pe cei ing lea ning as esul ing om didac ic exposu e includes he idea o unques ioned knowledge being p esen ed o lea ne s, as in many con en ional class oom si ua ions.
