Week 4 - by Jennifer Swain https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new Analysis of Annamma and Ewing en-us 2022-01-27 23:06:15 UTC 2025-11-04 13:16:12 UTC hello@padlet.com Annamma stated that DisCrit is an intersectional approach committed to, "a counter-hegemonic and transformative intervention in knowledge production, activism, pedagogy, and non-oppressive coalitions". The author sees intersectionality as a tool to center the multiply marginalized instead of conflating or ignoring intergroup differences. What is a DisCrit Curriculum and what are its goals? https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2019972224 2022-01-30 15:23:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2019972224 What was the author's purpose for using hashtags?

Why did she choose this/these methodologies to use for her research? How does Annamma's methodology reflect intersectionality? jenniferswain https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2019973860 2022-01-30 15:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2019973860 What advantages/limitations does Annamma describe using the methodology she has chosen in this section? How might these advantages/limitations influence her research? How was "objectivity" applied to critical phenomenology? jenniferswain https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2019974820 2022-01-30 15:26:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2019974820 Ewing (2018) recognizes that it is a school where she taught that was closed down and that the closing inspired her research. Researchers often draw on personal experiences and inspirations to shape their research, and while this can make them ideal research candidates in some instances, it could also make them biased. To ensure our research is objective, it is important to answer several questions: https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2019993169
1. In what ways does your experience equip you to effectively carry out your research?

2. In what ways might your experience or personal views make you biased?

3. What measures can you take to address potential biases?

4. How might the way you present (e.g., accent, clothes, etc.) to participants shape their responses to your research questions?

This seems to mirror the ways in which narrative inquiry frames researchers and participants as equal partners in research and gives participants more agency in the research process. This necessitates that researchers give attention to several considerations: https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2020019521
1. How much agency should researchers afford participants? Consider differences between qualitative and quantitative research.

2. How can researchers foster participants’ autonomy?

3. How can participant autonomy shape the research, either positively or negatively?

There can be as much agency as you want.

-With quantitative research, the numbers are what they are and tell one story. There isn't as much agency or influence that's needed/wanted.

-Either way, researchers should be aware of their own biases.]]> 2022-02-03 22:34:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2028488494 https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2028488698 Definition:
Summary: A DisCrit Curriculum would take this into account and arrange for it in such a way that all bodies may participate. Disabled girls of color, who are already stigmatized, require connections between what they are learning and how it relates to their life
Clarity in Goals:
1. Ensuring histories not erased.
2. Fostering student identities ]]> 2022-02-03 22:34:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2028488698 ... https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2028489621 2022-02-03 22:35:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2028489621 intersectionality https://padlet.com/jenniferswain/dswd5scf96114new/wish/2028489894 Using various ways of collecting data ensures that each girl could fully participate.

-Be involved in their lives in a way that makes sense to them and to the researcher.

-Even when you have opinions, etc. keep it focused on the experiences and of the participants.
