Building a Framework: Critical Pedagogy in Action
Mary Mathis Burnett
Instructor and Senior Instructional Designer, Arizona State University
Mary will share her work in critical pedagogy and actor-network theory to
create and implement a Critical Pedagogy Framework. The primary purpose of
the framework is to help make critical pedagogy more broadly accessible to
a wider range of faculty in higher education. The study engaged a
multidisciplinary committee of faculty, staff, and students to create the
framework which can be used to aid in the effective application of critical
pedagogy to online and remote courses and concluded with a functional
framework from which faculty and instructional designers alike can work.
Including participants of diverse backgrounds, varying power levels, and
sometimes opposing perspectives in the committee created a diversity of
thought and experience which offered the opportunity to refine the purpose,
expectations, and specific language of the tool. While the framework is not
intended to be a definitive source of critical pedagogy application, this
process opened the possibility that more faculty, instructional designers,
and other higher education stakeholders may find utility in the framework
as a tool for self-advocating and for professional pedagogical growth.
We look forward to seeing you there!
