Teaching and Learning for Social Justice and Equity in Higher Education: Virtual Settings
Parson, Laura; Ozaki, C. Casey
This book focuses on research-based teaching and learning practices that promote social justice and equity in higher education. The fourth volume in a four-volume series, this book critically addresses virtual and remote classroom settings. Chapters explore contexts within and outside the classroom, including a history of online learning; research on student engagement and perceptions; specific, actionable pedagogical or curriculum recommendations; and the application of traditional learning theories in virtual settings. The volume also explores how online education, through a technopositivist lens, promotes and reinforces sexist, racist, and gendered behaviors, as well as the role of the "student as consumer," troubling education in virtual settings in a way that allows for deeper discussion about how to make virtual education emancipatory and empowering.
