Putting Themselves in the Picture: Using Reflective Diaries in the Teaching of Feminist Geography
McGuinness, Mark
Journal of Geography in Higher Education, v33 n3 p339-349 Sep 2009
This paper looks back on the use of reflective diaries as an assessment tool in a feminist geography module over several years. It considers the ways in which reflection on practice and the valuing of the everyday could be seen as a specifically feminist pedagogic practice. It considers the alignment of module content with assessment format. The paper includes discussion of extended examples of student reflective writing and considers the practical and ethical drawbacks of using subjective modes of assessment with undergraduate geographers. (Contains 2 tables.)
