Hi Jill

Thanks for the reminder about the online chat.  Things are a bit busy at present so my preference would be to go for some time early May, if that fits for you?  At the moment any time on the 1st is ok as is morning of the 2nd or any time on the 7th or 8th.

I have used the chat facility but only to add the odd comment as a participant (and that was a while back) so probably a bit of input would be useful.

Thanks and Best Wishes

Allison

Hi Jill

Thanks for the support and energy that you are putting into this.

I think my big problem is the sheer number of different social/professional networks that are around and trying to keep up with all of them and contribute in some meaningful way. I think this one has a lot of potential though. Emily

Hi Jill,

Thank you for your kind welcome. The hub was recommended to me by Consumer Academic Lyn Mahboub who I have recently started working closely alongside on a new project. I would love to join the Ducie Network if I am able :)

Thanks again Jill.

Cheers,

Kate

Unlearning through Mad Studies: disruptive pedagogical praxis

Posted by Jill Anderson on October 26, 2020 at 19:00 0 Comments

Medical discourse currently dominates as the defining framework for madness in educational praxis. Consequently, ideas rooted in a mental health/illness binary abound in higher learning, as both curriculum content and through institutional procedures that reinforce structures of normalcy. While madness, then, is included in university spaces, this inclusion proceeds in ways that continue to pathologize madness and disenfranchise mad people.

This paper offers Mad…
