“Feminist Leanings:” Tracing Technofeminist and Intersectional Practices and Values in Three Decades of Computers and Composition

To see or not to see; the withering boundaries of invisibility: A novice Kuwaiti tutor’s experience of teaching online

“…It also tells me that there are multiple levels of accepted and contested narratives within a group, they co-exist and influence each other (Fivush, 2010). In this case a resistance narrative (of publicly asserting her position) is what Hajar imprinted which in essence challenged the canonical (FtF) narrative replicated and reproduced by the powerful tutor (De Hertogh, Lane and Ouellette, 2019). It is important to note that the interplay between resistance and dominance underline a structure of power that is relational and evolving in an ongoing dialectic interaction (Fivush, 2010).…”

Feminist trends in distance and hybrid higher education: a scoping review

“…The fact that the theoretical frameworks underlying distance education account for diverse identities will provide a new way of rethinking differences and proposing critical interventions in distance higher education. This techno-feminist approach with intersectional analytics has become a flourishing subfield of posthumanism (De Hertogh et al, 2019) and that we see reflected in the proposals for distance higher education. As Shivers et al ( 2019) by placing intersectional feminism at the core of the framework of experiences, an awareness is generated about the interactions that community members experience between the use of language, cultural practices, positions of power and the use of technology.…”

“…Digital technologies and teaching and learning platforms used in higher education can limit the feminist response and reproduce dominant structures and discourses that reinscribe power relations along the axes of gender, race, sexuality, nationality, and class (De Hertogh, et al, 2019). For these authors, study centered in materiality of platforms can and will lead to nuanced conversations, major breakups, and productive interventions.…”

Reflexivity, Interactions and Intersectionality in HCI and CSCW

“…Linguistically, 'Intersectionality' may simply refer to the 'crossover' of multiple identities, but theoretically, Intersectionality is a product of Black Feminist Theory (Vincent 2018). It is argued that "as scholars, if we are not working against such re-inscriptions of power [..] and if we are not explicitly calling attention to power from a feminist, intersectional perspective, we are merely passive participants in what we have always proclaimed to be an actively engaged field" (De Hertogh et al 2019). True representation of participants is not always possible due to anonymisation, emotional labour and many other reasons.…”
