“…These results are consistent with an intersectional reading that does not consider violence against women homogeneously but focuses rather on the heterogeneity of women’s social statuses and experiences, as well as on the plurality of resulting identity-related components (Corbeil & Marchand, 2006). These results therefore call for caution because a homogenous and universal reading of the violence experienced by these groups of women could hide the existence of differences within each one of them.…”

“…The intersectional approach is used to understand and study IPV (Corbeil & Marchand, 2006; Harper & Kurtzman, 2014; Oxman-Martinez & Krane, 2005). In this literature review, researchers conducted a critical analysis of the “intersections” that exist between the three DEI groups to better understand the complexity and singularity of these women’s journeys, that is, what they have in common and what is unique to each of them (Figure 1).…”

“…The intersectional approach goes beyond a simple recognition of the multiplicity of system of oppression operating from these categories and postulates their interaction in the production and reproduction of social inequalities (Brah & Phoenix, 2004; Collins, 2000; Crenshaw, 1989). Thus, updating the systems of oppression (e.g., sexism, racism, ageism, disability-based discrimination) that social relationships create is at the very core of this approach (Corbeil & Marchand, 2006). It helps to provide an understanding of how individual, social, and structural factors interact and lead to the marginalization of certain groups of women.…”

Some groups of women are more vulnerable to intimate partner violence (IPV) due to particular risks and/or experiences: women with disabilities, elderly women, and immigrant women (DEI). Too often, their reality goes unnoticed, especially for those belonging to more than one of these groups. In this literature review, researchers used an intersectional approach to document the similarities and differences in how DEI women experience IPV, in terms of forms and consequences, as well as related risk factors, explanatory theories, and prevention strategies. Researchers selected 56 articles for review based on the following inclusion criteria: studies on adults living in a situation of IPV, studies on one of the three demographics under study (DEI), studies about one or multiple research questions, and studies based on empirical data relying on research methodology in either French or English. Researchers evaluated each selected article for its quality according to a chart that was specially developed for this review. The results highlight existing “intersections” between these groups to help understand the influence of belonging to more than one vulnerability group on these women’s experiences with IPV. The importance to better training social workers and developing policies and programs that target the social determinants of health to prevent IPV experienced by DEI is also discussed.

“…Establishing five social media literacies, namely attention, participation, collaboration, network awareness, and critical consumption, Rheingold (2010) emphasizes the need for Twitter to be a valuable communication tool, in contrast to Twitter’s potential pitfall of being a mere distraction (Wankel, 2009). Ultimately, Twitter can be a powerful collaboration tool (Corbeil and Corbeil, 2011; Rheingold, 2010). Summarizing, Reuben (2008) emphasizes the tremendous potential Twitter could play in education, but acknowledges that no one has found the right niche just yet.…”

With the rise of Web 2.0, a multitude of new possibilities on how to use these online technologies for active learning has intrigued researchers. While most instructors have used Twitter for in-class discussions, this study explores the teaching practice of Twitter as an active, informal, outside-of-class learning tool. Through a comparative experiment in a small classroom setting, this study asks whether the use of Twitter aids students in learning of a particular subject matter. And if so, in which learning contexts Twitter offers advantages over more traditional teaching methods. This exploratory study showed potential opportunities and pitfalls that Twitter could bring to the e-learning community in higher education.

“…The implications of our findings can be transferred to the broader online learning community. Several researchers (e.g., Blaschke, 2014;Corbeil & Corbeil, 2011) have observed that social media platforms are increasingly incorporated into traditional online classroom in order to foster student interaction and support students in developing self-regulated learning skills.…”

Connectivist pedagogies are geared towards building a network of learners that actively employ technologies to establish interpersonal connections in open online settings. In this context, as course participants increasingly establish interpersonal relationships among peers they have greater opportunity to draw on and leverage the latent social capital that resides in such a distributed learning environment. However, to date there have been a limited number of studies exploring how learners build their social capital in open large-scale courses. To inform the facilitation of learner networks in open online settings and beyond, this study analyzed factors associated with how learners accumulate social capital in the form of learner connections over time. The study was conducted in two massive open online course offerings (Connectivism and Connective Knowledge) that were designed on the principles of connectivist pedagogy and that made use of data about social interaction from Twitter, blogs, and Facebook. For this purpose, linear mixed modelling was used to understand the associations between learner social capital, linguistic and discourse patterns, media used for interaction, as well as the time in the course when interaction took place. The results highlight the association between the language used by the learners and the creation of ties between them. Analyses on the accumulation of connections over time have implications for the pedagogical choices that would be expected to help learners leverage access to potential social capital in a networked context.
