Funded by e-Campus Ontario, this collaborative, open educational resource (OER) will bring together a collection of 100+ short pedagogical pieces (500-1000 words) to help new learners understand complex theoretical concepts and disciplinary jargon from the critical social sciences. Each entry takes the form of an “illustrative vignette”—a short, evocative story, visual or infographic, poem, described photograph, or other audio-visual material. This OER will be of use across disciplines and community contexts, democratizing theory while linking it to practical, grounded experience.
This FOLLOW-UP to our initial CFP is to gather submissions that address one of the remaining available terms in our catalogue. Please consult the online spreadsheet to select an available concept/term. Then email your Expression of Interest to the editors (contacts below), confirming the your selection AND the illustrative example that you would like to use. We will get back to you with any feedback. To create your vignette, follow the template attached to this CFP. Two sample vignettes are also included to provide examples of style, tone, and structure.
You may create your vignette as an expository text, story or narrative, illustration or infographic, poem, described photograph, or other audio-visual material.
Final submissions are due August 15, 2021, although we would be happy to receive yours before that date.
Learning Outcomes
After reading and discussing an individual vignette, our intention is that students will be able to:
- Articulate, in their own words, the meaning of the theoretical concept/term at hand.
- Form and describe connections between the theoretical concept/term and examples of how the concept/term is meaningful to lived experience.
- Identify or create their own vignette, based on an existing understanding of a theoretical concept or term, and draw connections to lived experience and concrete examples.
