Antiracist Pedagogy: Course Design

The Journal of Interactive Technology and Pedagogy, May 2021.

"From abstract: Using Black critical theoretical perspectives and pedagogical examples from our experiences teaching in online learning environments, this article articulates a case for antiracist online education. In the midst of the deadliest convergence of three devastating global “pandemics”— the COVID-19 pandemic, the continued murdering of Black bodies, and abnormal environmental disasters precipitated by global warming—educational technology could be a vehicle of liberation yet it remains an apparatus of control, further exacerbating inequality, especially for Black students."

From site: "The Wisconsin Institute for Discovery is committed to eradicating racism in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and in academia broadly. As WID is part of those systems, we have a responsibility to take action, make change, educate ourselves, confront racism, and build a more anti-racist organization.

To that end, this page provides links to resources and collections to help WIDites to begin or continue anti-racist work in the lab, in the classroom, in mentorship, in recruiting and hiring, and in every day work in the academy."
