Enhancing Culturally Responsive Pedagogy in Teaching and Learning for White Faculty: Can Professional Development Help?
Full text linkPedagogies traditionally used by faculty in U.S. higher education tend to center white students and their success, simultaneously disregarding the learning strengths of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) students. Culturally Responsive Pedagogy (CRP) may align better with BIPOC students; however, white faculty use of CRP is limited and/or superficial. Therefore, professional development for CRP is needed to enhance and deepen the teaching and learning practices of white faculty. Using a multiple case study method, this study examines how white faculty from a diverse range of disciplines understand and enact CRP, focusing on the role of professional development in their CRP practice. Findings demonstrate that a faculty’s context and white racial consciousness impact the effectiveness of CRP-related professional development. This study demonstrates that individual, institutional, and structural beliefs and practices that advance white ways of knowing must be addressed and diminished in order for CRP-related professional development to be effective
Culture Shock: Exploring the Truths & Benefits of Remote Work in Higher Education
Full text linkIn “Culture Shock,” Gallup’s 2023 publication, the authors explore the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on work and life, urging a reevaluation of leadership strategies, especially for remote work. They highlight a significant shift, with many U.S. employees hesitant to return to traditional offices, favoring new remote work environments that integrate work and life. This shift is also evident in higher education, where faculty see benefits in productivity and well-being, despite some pressure to revert to old norms. Clifton and Harter (2023) argue that the focus should be on how organizations build and maintain relationships in this evolving landscape. Their thesis emphasizes adapting to cultural changes to thrive. Gallup’s insights are crucial for addressing leadership challenges, bridging gaps between employer and employee expectations, and recognizing the power shift towards employees. This review applies these concepts to higher education, particularly nursing academia, and offers recommendations for innovation, culture, onboarding, mentoring, engagement, performance, and well-being
How to Sell a Gendered Fantasy
Full text linkThe media analysis essays in this collection are the result of an online graduate course at Stony Brook University’s Program in Writing and Rhetoric entitled “Intersectionality and Media.” Drawing upon methods and scholarship based primarily in rhetorical studies, the course aimed to prepare graduate students in a variety of disciplines to write, research, and communicate about issues related to media, identity, and the intersectionality of oppression—especially race, class, gender, and sexuality. How to Sell a Gendered Fantasy analyzes various media artifacts (spanning digital, film and tv, music, and games) and the fantasies about gender that they contain. Gendered fantasies work to allure us, alarm us, confuse us—in general, they occupy our attention, whether one attempts to advocate for gender equality or enforce traditional gender norms. As the intersectional approach of this volume shows, gendered fantasies may be “sold” as a clear, simple, single item, but they are ultimately package deals full of contradictions and complexity

Navigating Tumultuous Waters: The Role of Faculty in a Politically Charged Higher Education Landscape
Full text linkThis article critically examines the increasingly complex role of faculty in today’s politically charged higher education landscape. It begins by emphasizing the significance of academic freedom as a fundamental pillar in preserving the integrity and purpose of higher education. Amidst heightened external pressures and societal polarizations, it delves into the challenges faculty face, including navigating biases and stakeholder pressures while maintaining impartial scholarship. The article presents strategies for faculty to safeguard their institutions against undue political influence and ensure their academic pursuits remain true to critical inquiry and intellectual freedom. Moreover, it highlights the crucial role that accreditation professionals play in bridging the gap between faculty and governing bodies, advocating for the academic community’s needs and freedoms. The article argues that faculty and accreditation professionals are central to resisting politicization in higher education, protecting academic values, and ensuring that the academy remains a space for free thought and scholarly advancement

The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Art: The Intersection of AI-Generated Images and Ethical Concerns
No full textArtificial intelligence (AI) has gotten significant attention and debates, especially within the creative community, regarding AI-generated visual content. AI-generated images relate to the most popular concerns among artists and designers. This new approach of using AI leads to redefining the culture of creativity that shaped values and principles, which was built by a traditional perspective. However, the ongoing development of open-AI-powered generative tools is challenging society’s adoption of AI in creative realms. This paper explores and analyzes expert opinions and the public perspective of AI-generated algorithms, shedding light on fears and excitement surrounding their influences. Subsequently, ethical concerns, which are revealed by the development and mass availability of AI-powered generative programs, such as job displacement, the devaluation of human-made art, and copyright issues, remain central to these discussions. During the analysis and exploration of ethical issues related to AI- generated images, a significant discovery was revealed, such as AI’s environmental impact. This impact plays a crucial role in the age of open AI; however, it is often minimally addressed or disregarded in the creative community. Developing and incorporating AI programs is an inevitable process; therefore, research into the current situation and concerns of AI will help society make an informed decision about implementing AI into the creative process
