Strong Evaluation in a Flat World: Resisting the Neutrality of Platforms

https://social.trom.tf/display/dbc8dc44-2068-8d0d-266c-7e1280384879

Are platform-based evaluations as neutral as they seem?

In my latest post, I argue that digital platforms often obscure the value judgments baked into their logic. To resist this flattening of pedagogy, we need strong evaluation grounded in ethics and purpose.

I appreciate Matthew Kirschenbaum & Rita Raley’s attention to labor conditions when they write of the burdens that “fall disproportionately on those who may not have the luxury of engaging otherwise: not only those with obscene course loads but also instructors who do not set their own syllabi, writing center tutors, and the staffers in teaching resource centers.”

Jennifer Sano-Franchini, Megan McIntyre, & Maggie Fernandes - "Refusing GenAI in Writing Studies: A Quickstart Guide"

"In short, we demonstrate that our call for GenAI refusal is not uninformed, moral outcry as a result of technological 'aversion,' fear of change, or other so-called 'doom and gloom' views of technological advancement as it is often framed, but rather extends on our disciplinary knowledge in rhetoric, writing, and composition studies, digital rhetorics and literacies, computers and writing, and technical communication."

An introduction for my new instance:

My main interests are written communication, teaching writing, and education, particularly as they relate to productive disagreement explored in various contexts: rhetoric, organizational & workplace communication, organizational learning, training, research, emergent strategy, coalition work, and facilitation.
