摘要
国际虚拟交流(VE)可以成为AIDE (Access, Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity)工具箱的宝贵补充,特别是在北半球的高等教育机构。然而,来自委内瑞拉、也门和美国的教师在某些合作伙伴关系中出现了一种有趣的动态。由于学生的利益理所当然地成为交流的主要目标,在全球南方参与者的社会中,由无形暴力力量造成的教师不平等问题,直到很久以后才暴露出来。难以忽视的事实是,传统的权力结构和无形的特权很容易给VE蒙上色彩,尤其是当来自全球北方的教师没有充分认识到他们在全球南方的伙伴所经历的社会政治现实时。解决方案不应局限于文化谦逊。企业应该以尊重合作双方为伙伴关系带来的人力资本的道德责任为基础。
An unspoken truth: faculty (in)equity in the context of invisible violence: virtual exchange case studies
International Virtual Exchange (VE) can be a valuable addition to the AIDE (Access, Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity) toolbox, particularly at higher education institutions in the Global North. However, an interesting dynamic emerged in certain partnerships created by faculty from Venezuela, Yemen, and the USA. With benefits to the students rightly being the main goal of the exchange, the issue of faculty inequity, created by the forces of invisible violence in the Global South participants’ societies, was brought to light only much later. The inconvenient truth is that traditional power structures and invisible privileges can easily color a VE, particularly when faculty from the Global North are not fully cognizant of the sociopolitical realities being experienced by their partners in the Global South. The solutions should go beyond practicing cultural humility. VEs should be grounded in the ethical responsibility of honoring the human capital that both partners bring to the partnership.
