Abstract

As female enrollment in higher education continues to grow and information and visual technologies continue to advance, art educators need to carefully examine and implement pedagogy in technology-mediated learning environments in order to generate innovative ways to empower female students. To this end, I conducted an empirical study to explore the pedagogical rationale and strategies that would support raising gender consciousness through a technology-mediated learning environment. Using a feminist lens, I first examine gender issues in technological social and learning environments. I suggest that art educators carefully practice feminist pedagogy and feminist consciousness-raising (CR) in order to motivate students to examine gender issues in art. I then present a sampling of student online discussions to illustrate how the Interaction Analysis Model can be applied to foster a feminist CR space that privileges participation, dialogue, diverse personal narratives, multiple interpretations, experiential knowledge, and gender-centeredness.
