Abstract
This research aims to explore how diverse human rights educators engage in an online course about context-sensitive and controversial issues related to human rights education (HRE) through constructivist methods like critical reflection and collaboration. I am currently observing and performing preliminarily analysis of the learning experiences of fifteen human rights educators participating in a 12-week online course about HRE. I have been collecting data from these educators' course applications, online learning activities, three course online surveys (i.e., pre-, mid-, and end-course), three telephone interviews (i.e., early-, end-, and post-course), and informal, ongoing email exchanges with them throughout the course. To analyze the ongoing online data, I have adapted some ethnographic approaches to the online environment called virtual ethnography to investigate the ways the educators communicate with each other and make sense of their online learning experiences.
