Women Educators’ Experiences During COVID-19: On the Front Lines
examines the gendered experiences, challenges, and rapid changes
faced by women in higher education during COVID-19. The book’s
chapters cover lived experiences ranging from graduate students
navigating the pandemic to those grappling with balancing
motherhood and the academy. Through these diverse perspectives,
this edited collection explores the impact of the diversity and
nuances of the feminine identity on navigating higher education
during an international health crisis. Ultimately, contributors
provide recommendations for best practices and suggestions for
change for administrators, faculty, and policymakers to dismantle
the academy as a male-dominated institution. Scholars of
communication, gender studies, and higher education will find this
book of particular interest.
Supporting the Military-Affiliated Learner: Communication
Approaches to Military Pedagogy and Education challenges the
academic community to 1) reevaluate how they support
military-affiliated learners (MALs) and address how the
military-civilian-academic divide causes disparities and barriers
to MAL academic achievement and retention and 2) implement programs
and develop strategies to facilitate equitable academic integration
from application to graduation. With contributions from veterans,
military spouses, and communication educators, this book explicate
barriers that MALs face when trying to transition to, navigate, and
succeed in higher education. This edited volume explores the impact
of the diversity and nuances of MAL identities on their experiences
in higher education; promotes military competence by providing
opportunities for educators and support staff to learn about
potential barriers and promote best practices for connecting with
MALs and validating their lived experiences; examines how
technology/computer-mediated communication may be used to
facilitate community building and promote connectedness for MALs
within face-to-face and digital spheres.
