Teachers’ attitudes towards equity, diversity, and inclusion in higher education: A scoping review
Positive teacher attitudes do not necessarily lead to educational change. • Higher-ranked academics show less open EDI attitudes than lower-ranked academics. • Training and/or exposure can affect teacher attitudes towards EDI positively. • Teacher attitude towards EDI has three dimensions: openness/comfort/willingness. • EDI research on teacher attitude lacks an intersectional approach. Higher education institutions worldwide have formulated Equi…
Belonging in Online Synchronous Classrooms: Experiences of Minoritized Students in Dutch Higher Education during the Covid-19 Pandemic
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, higher education in many countries suddenly moved online. The sudden move to online education forced teachers to adapt their teaching to an online context. The concept of belonging has been described as the next evolution of, and a characteristic that is central to, inclusion. Many have argued that inclusion can never be truly achieved without the presence of belonging. In this paper we ask important question…
Managing “Hot Moments” in Diverse Classrooms for Inclusive and Equitable Campuses
Classrooms are fundamental components of university campuses. The creation of inclusive and equitable campus environments is incumbent upon the teachers who need to navigate through “hot moments”, which typically refers to situations or incidents that generate intense emotions or strong reactions among the students or between the students and teachers. The literature suggests that many “hot moments” occur due to microaggressions in the classroom …
The use of information and communication technologies by older people with cognitive impairments: From barriers to benefits
Inspired by both classical theories on technology adoption and gerontological theories on social and emotional ageing, we aim to better understand barriers and benefits in ICT use among older people with cognitive impairments. Through qualitative interviews (N = 35) among this population as well as important network members, we obtained a detailed picture of the role of ICTs in their everyday lives. First, we find that older individuals with cogn…
Ethnic-minority climbers: Evaluating "minority cultures of mobility" as a lens to study Dutch minority student organizations
The increasing discomfort with ethnic diversity in many countries is paralleled by the emergence of middle classes consisting of second-generation immigrants who articulate their minority identities. This calls for an enhanced understanding of the experiences and identifications of social climbers with minority backgrounds. In this article, I explore the relevance of the idea of a "minority culture of mobility" (MCM) as a lens to look at these pr…
Ethnic Identity, Social Mobility and the Role of Soulmates
Based on a study among higher-educated adult children of lower-class Turkish and Moroccan immigrants in the Netherlands, this open access book explores processes of identification among social climbers with ethnic minority backgrounds and details the contextual and temporal nature of identification
Social mobility allowing for ethnic identification: Reassertion of ethnicity among Moroccan and Turkish Dutch
The emergence of middle‐classes that articulate their ethnic distinctiveness leads to discomfort and bewilderment in many societies. This rejection arises from assimilationist demands and straight‐line integration assumptions which dominate the integration discourse. Relying on social‐psychological theories, this mixed‐methods study explores the ethnic identification of university‐educated second‐generation Moroccan and Turkish Dutch. The finding…
Les musulmans à l'intérieur de la « Maison néerlandaise: De l'importance de l'origine dans les politiques définissant l'appartenance nationale
La construction de l’autre en négatif de la définition de soi est au cœur de la relation biaisée qu’entretiennent les Pays-Bas avec leurs citoyens musulmans. Derrière son image d’Épinal d’un peuple ouvert et accueillant, la société néerlandaise impose les représentations d’une culture nationale auxquelles les immigrés et leurs descendants sont sommés de s’adapter. Les visions protectionnistes des libertés culturelles ou sexuelles, et nationaliste…
Substantive signifiers? Ethnic and religious identifications among second-generation immigrants in the Netherlands
In the context of increasingly ‘culturalised’ discourses on immigrant integration in Europe, this article aims to contribute to a de-essentialised understanding of ethnic and religious identity. Based on the analysis of quantitative data, it reveals the multifarious relationship between identification and culture among second-generation Turkish and Moroccan Dutch in the Netherlands. Some instances of self-identification with nominal labels (‘Turk…
