abstract = "Nan Shepherd, best known for her novel The Living Mountain, was a Scottish novelist and poet who wrote about her personal experience of walking in the Cairngorms in Scotland. Shepherd captured the intimacy between knowledge and experience, reminding the reader that not all knowledge can be measured or quantified: {\textquoteleft}I know [the mountain{\textquoteright}s] depth, though not in feet{\textquoteright} (2011: 12). In Shepherd{\textquoteright}s writing about the mountain{\textquoteright}s plateau, I find a suggestive image for thinking through some of the problems with the English education system{\textquoteright}s outcome-oriented model of schooling.
