2021-09-24 - Anne-Kathrin Peters SPOTLIGHT seminar
The SPOTLIGHT this time is on Anne-Kathrin Peters who joined the Department of Learning in May 2021 as Associate Professor in technology education with a focus on sustainability, especially equality and justice. Anne joins the department coming from the IT department at Uppsala University (UU). There she was a member of the Uppsala Computing Education Research group. She was also the coordinator of the climate change leadership initiative at UU, initiating and supporting cross-disciplinary and -institutional research collaborations on societal transformations. Anne has studied the discipline of computing as it is produced and reproduced in university education. A central finding is that students are socialized into masculine and unsustainable disciplinary practices. You can read about this research in her PhD work [1], a journal article published in TOCE [2], or in a Swedish book chapter published by Studentlitteratur [3].
Anne says:
- In the SPOTLIGHT event, I will focus on talking about how higher education (especially technology education) might be reimagined and transformed to become a domain that allows diverse people to care for the world, and learn by doing so. I will tell a bit about research on social constructions of university/technology education to discuss change. I hope the presentation will allow us to connect and I appreciate if you tell me about related work already going on at KTH and beyond.
- As a preparation, you can read a 4-page description of a special session, introducing perspectives of care for computing and engineering education [4]. You can read the article that I will present as one one of my favourite articles, theorising education that takes responsibility for the future [5], authored by Deborah Osberg.
- If you have more time and interest, have a look at one of my very recent accepted articles, which I will present at the FIE conference in October [6]. I applied some of the education theories I have come to find valuable in the past years to develop and reflect on a project course at UU. In the future, I would like to bring together some of these theoretical perspectives from environmental and sustainability education research, futures studies, and philosophy of education with feminist research.
