FORRT's Academic Wheel of Privilege
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- The Academic Wheel of Privilege (AWoP) provides an alternative method to assigning authorship and credit in scientific papers (as opposed to the classic “merit” system, which, in our view, perpetuates inequities in academia). We believe the WoP can serve as a starting tool to generate deeper discussions on the concepts of privilege, power imbalance, implicit bias, positionality, and intersectionality. Furthermore, we believe the WoP helps raise awareness of the hidden curriculums and systems-conferring power and dominance to a minority of researchers-as a means to galvanize change in norms and culture toward more equitable academia.
The AWoP is a starting tool for communicating the concepts of privilege, power imbalances, implicit biases, positionality, and intersectionality-hopefully sponsoring a change toward a more equitable assignment of credit and authorship in academia. FORRT's Neurodiversity team thought that a major barrier to these more profound reflections is the lack of a didactic tool with flexible operationalizations. After using the first iteration of the AWoP to help us assign credit and authorship order to our preprint ‘Bridging Neurodiversity and Open Scholarship,’ we are producing a scalable web app so folks can apply the AWoP to their context and needs. Users will be able to remove and add privileges, de/increase the number of categories, and choose how to score participants' academic privileges. We are also working on a standalone piece addressing the benefits, scope, and proper uses for the AWoP (e.g., adjacent categories should not be interpreted as having the 'same' level of privilege). We have received lots of constructive feedback, which we will be implementing in our next non-static iteration of the AWoP. Please email info@forrt.org with any comments or suggestions.
For you history buffs...Ranking people on characteristics was very popular in mid century Germany.
How can I calculate how much I am owed because of social injustice. I need to cash in on this.
To be able or not able understand or able or not spend time this wheel everyday to check your privelege is also a matter of privelege.
We here have a privelege to know this video, while many others don't.
I feel like my IQ has dropped watching this.
So I noticed that ageism and generalized appearance (attractiveness, height) are missing...
I see that the framework is not released. Do you intend to make it public?
I wonder if there was never a label placed on one's status would you be happy with what you have, or would you still be complaining about how has more?
Thank you for sharing your insights. Where can I find the application to calculate my score? Thank you
To think that this is that crap that fills the minds of the "best minds" of our time.
Does every country in the world have its own wheel?
New show coming this Fall, THE WHEEL OF PRIVILEGE!!!😂😂😂
lol
LOL!!! What a joke!
