“…Powell and Sharpe report that discussions on how to make room, as it were, for indigenous history on the Western timelines employed by Omeka included the following suggestions: assigning the story an arbitrary date range that would make it appear visually before any event in the chronological time when queried; employing network visualizations rather than a timeline, to attempt to convey the nonlinear and interconnected nature of the Haudenosaunee way of narrating history; or simply providing digital versions of the traditional way in which the Haudenosaunee have preserved their history across generations, namely making a video of the oral account. (For a discussion of the ways in which digital technology itself resembles and even parallels traditional indigenous means of producing and sharing knowledge and of experiencing time and space, See de la Garza, 2016, pp. 49-62).…”

Internationalizing the Curriculum for STEAM (STEM + Arts and Humanities): From Intercultural Competence to Cultural Humility

Internationalization of the Curriculum (IoC) has proved essential to realize the potential of internationalization as a driver of quality in Higher Education. The broadening of topics, bibliographic materials and other resources that result from it improve the breadth and depth of the content, making it more comprehensive, updated, and relevant. Moreover, the Internationalization at Home (IaH) strand that seeks to mobilize the informal and the hidden curriculum to bring stay-at-home students an international experience similar to that of those going abroad widens access. However, both IoC and its IaH subset have centered mostly around individual disciplines. This article proposes an alternative view of IoC that focuses on interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches to reviewing the curriculum, in particular STEAM, including indigenous knowledge as it does not separate the arts and humanities from science (STEM). Using case studies and quoting instances of best practice, the article demonstrates that the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches advocated are better suited to pursue the learning outcomes sought by IoC.

“…It is an interdisciplinary approach used across the humanities and social sciences, including history, gender and women’s studies, public health, sociology, and to a lesser extent, psychology (see Moorehead, 2014 for an exception). Across disciplines, the focus is on engaging communities who are oppressed in creating social change, such as Native American and Indigenous peoples (Cueva, Kuhnley, Revels, Schoenberg, & Dignan, 2015; de la Garza, 2016; Eglinton, Gubrium, & Wexler, 2017), GLBTQIA communities (Vivienne, 2011; Vivienne & Burgess, 2013), immigrants and refugees (Lenette, Cox, & Brough, 2015; Syed, Fish, Hicks, Kathawalla, & Lee, 2019), as well as other underserved and vulnerable populations (Martin, McLean, Brooks, & Wood, 2019; Palacios et al, 2015). DST research projects have examined topics of clear interest to counseling psychologists, including identity (Couros et al, 2013; Gray, Oré de Boehm, Farnsworth, & Wolf, 2010; Vivienne, 2011), trauma and healing (Beltrán & Begun, 2014; Palacios, 2012), health (Cueva et al, 2013; Gray et al, 2010), and education (Eglinton et al, 2017; Lawrence & Paige, 2016).…”

“…At the microlevel, DST workshops provide community members with an opportunity to tell an original story about their life, to make meaning of their lived-experiences, and to give voice to stories that are often marginalized in and by broader society. Thus, DST can serve as an intervention for community members to increase their well-being (Beltrán & Begun, 2014), consolidate aspects of their identity (Gray et al, 2010), and promote resilience (de la Garza, 2016). At the macrolevel—for communities and broader society, and for researchers and research itself—digital stories can be disseminated to raise awareness, for educational purposes, and to challenge negative and harmful stereotypes.…”

While counseling psychologists made substantial proposals to advance qualitative research since the special issue on related methods was published 15-years ago (Haverkamp, Morrow, & Ponterotto, 2005), the field continues to demonstrate an overreliance on quantitative methods. Though important for producing knowledge we can depend on, excessive use of these methods poses a barrier for counseling psychologists to address the needs of the communities that are at the core of our discipline's valuesthose who are marginalized and underserved in society. In alignment with our values of social justice, advocacy, and empowerment, we propose counseling psychologists adopt a methodology within a critical paradigm to better address issues of inequality and inequity when working with underrepresented communities, such as digital storytelling. Rooted in a movement to increase access to art for marginalized communities in the 1970s and 1980s, digital storytelling is an arts-based research methodology that captures first-person narrated accounts of peoples' lives through the use of stories, photos, and videos, and empowers communities to be a part of research to create social change. We provide recommendations for using digital storytelling in counseling psychology research as outlined through 5 phases, including Phase I) digital storytelling's critical paradigm, Phase II) project development, Phase III) implementation, Phase IV) data analysis, and Phase V) dissemination. While doing so, we draw on examples from 2 digital storytelling projects we are familiar with, Immigrant Stories and OrigiNatives, providing a framework for a digital frontier in counseling psychology research. Public Significance StatementThis article outlines recommendations for using digital stories as a collaborative method for conducting research with individuals from marginalized and underserved communities. Specifically, these recommendations are intended to assist counseling psychologists in using digital storytelling to address inequities and inequalities in a manner consistent with the field's values.

“…The combination of art and digital technologies in Indigenous resistance has an extensive history. De La Garza (2016) describes how digital technology ‘resembles and even parallels traditional Indigenous means of producing and sharing knowledge and of experiencing time and space’ (p. 49). Nelson (1999) coins the term ‘Maya-hacker’ to describe the vital importance of information to political strategies of Indigenous resistance in Guatemala.…”

Art, Affect, and Social Media in the ‘No Dakota Access Pipeline’ Movement

Indigenous-led activism against proposed oil pipelines has relied heavily on social media, as in the #NoDAPL campaign against the Dakota Access Pipeline. This paper explores affective engagement in online activism, including the Standing Rock ‘check-in’ campaign on Facebook. Moving beyond dichotomous understandings of embodied vs digital activism, Cannupa Hanska Luger’s Mirror Shields Project employs digital media in order to support direct action at Standing Rock. Patricia Clough draws a direct link between affect and technoscientific understandings of the body in her concept of biomediated bodies. This helps explain how physical and digital activism are linked: the digital and the physical cannot be understood as independent of each other, since online engagement always has an embodied aspect as well. Luger’s Mirror Shields Project functions as a form of alterlife, in resistance to biopower, recognizing historical and ongoing harms while also creating new possibilities for resistance.
