Description: Teachers’ self-directed learning within the frame of International Women’s Day is the focus of this week ‘s Chasing Encounters episode, titled “Exploring Digital Networks.” Anna Bartosik, teacher-researcher, joins us to talk about digital landscapes, where a number of language teachers explore their learning. We discuss whether International Women’s Day is still relevant in academia (Savigny, 2014), Twitter as a digital landscape of practice (Wenger-Trayner & Wenger-Trayner, 2014), and how virtual and other self-directed learning have the ability to shape teacher knowledge and positionality as transformative intellectuals (Kumaravadivelu, 2003). Anna offers some tips on reaching a wider network on Twitter, suggests some female academics to follow, and explains her interest in researching digital landscapes with a posthuman lens (Snaza et al, 2014). “ my learner journey has happened in these places (social media and others), not on those top-down mandated places of PD” Anna Bartosik Cite this podcast (APA): Ortega, Y.
