Also highly recommend checking out the book #DesignJustice by @schock if you're interested in learning more about this topic
The news from global politics isn’t promising, but we can respond by dedicating ourselves to what we believe in. Costanza Chock’s Design Justice offers essential guidelines. Let’s work towards a fairer, more inclusive future. @schockolatl @mitpress

, I'd like you to meet:
Professor @KathAlbury is a #researcher #academic at #Swinburne, part of @adms (full disclosure: I @admin the server that the ADMS account is on). Her ADMS projects focus on the development of data capability and capacity in #NFP organisations, and data #ethics and speculative #DesignJustice in the field of #SexTech. 
If you're into #DesignJustice,
you may also like the work of @schock.

That's all for today, please do share your own lists so we can more closely connect the #Fediverse 
Our state of denial of the role of cars
The normalisation of crashes must stop Pt.2
"These policies have promoted car-based infrastructure and urban sprawl. Public transport and active transport such as walking and cycling have been neglected.
Children are the victims of our obsession with allowing heavy, fast-moving vehicles in our everyday spaces, including around schools.
The freedom of car drivers comes at the expense of the freedom of all others. At the same time, the environment and society bear most of the costs of this car culture.
It’s essentially a form of victim blaming. Instead of reducing the source of violence, we tell everybody to be more careful around it.
We need to recognise that the car threatens children’s safety and their right to independently roam public spaces. This directly threatens their long-term health and wellbeing.
Car drivers’ rights are not more important than children’s rights to be safe on our streets. The interests of those who oppose measures such as reduced car parking or lower speed limits should not be more important than our children’s wellbeing. No benefit of a pro-car policy can be greater than the benefit of children’s active presence in public spaces, where they have a right to be imperfect and distracted."

Mastodon AustraliaBellingenNSW (@Bellingen@mastodon.au)Our state of denial of the role of cars
The normalisation of crashes must stop Pt 1
"Our children are victims of road violence. We need to talk about the deadly norms of car use
The deaths and injuries caused by car drivers are an everyday occurrence. This road violence has become normalised. We take it for granted as the price we have to pay to use our cars.
Globally, car crashes are the world’s leading cause of death for people aged five to 25. In Australia, road deaths included 293 people in this age group in 2022, a rise from 281 in 2019 and 276 in 2018.
These deaths are stark reminders of the structural problem with a deeply entrenched, car-dominated culture. The huge numbers of deaths and injuries on our roads are a result of choosing to build our society around cars. This degree of harm does not seem to draw the same level of outrage as any other form of violence would."

@mhayesgolding @edutooters For designing learning in a classroom (aka, #teaching), say a college-level math course, there is the MAA Instructional Practices Guide:
https://maa.org/programs-and-communities/curriculum%20resources/instructional-practices-guide
For #PhysicsEd, the Physport site: https://www.physport.org/
Metaphors & principles are useful for #LearningDesign, like "If Math Is The Aspirin, Then How Do You Create The Headache?"https://danmeyer.substack.com/p/if-math-is-the-aspirin-then-how-do

it may surprise and amaze you that female crash test dummies do not exist (see Criado Perez's book Invisible Women).
now Astrid Linder at VTI has developed the "world's first average-sized female crash test dummy"

And Professor Astrid Linder, a world-leading road safety researcher who spent 20 years developing the dummy. The objective is for women to have the same protection as men in a collision.

A UX #designjustice nightmare with extremely high stakes for asylum-seekers is unfolding on the border as the restrictions of Title 42 are replaced with the unforgiving code of CBP One, a smartphone app for making point of entry interview appointments that fails to include some migrants' languages, assigns appointments to individuals instead of families, and requires live photos while failing to recognize the facial features of those with darker skin.

Our project molo.news is entering its 2nd phase: thanks to the VIP+ programme of the @bmbf_bund, we can test at the @zemki, the Leibniz Institute for Media Research HBI and the @unileipzig whether our platform for local news also works across Germany. We are launching in 4 other small and medium-sized cities besides Bremen and Leipzig and with lots of great ideas. #PioneerJournalism #LocalJournalism #PlatformCoop #DesignJustice More info: https://www.uni-bremen.de/en/zemki/details/molonews-forschungsverbund-testet-eine-in-bremen-entwickelte-nachrichten-app-1
