Section on webpage: Feminist Pedagogy – Online
Tenets: Promoting reflexivity. Promoting cooperative learning. Examining how gender, intersecting with other social categories, structures our lives, learning, and knowledge production, access to resources and information. Examining the “why” in addition to the “what”. Humanizing online teaching/learning. Creating cultures of care in online classrooms. Examining (dis)embodiment in virtual teaching/learning. Using technology intentionally to build communities and enhance learning.
Annotation: In this article, the author argues for a greater embracing of feminist pedagogy in distance education. She states that she views “feminist pedagogy as an ethical position as well as a pedagogical position that calls attentive ways of looking into structuring educational services, methods, policies, and legislations that create an inclusive learning space not just for women, but for all students who are disadvantaged in their education. Within this context, student participation can be framed as a means for transformation, contributing to one’s well-being, agency and sense of power.”
