The field of technical and professional communication is young, and research related to it—and specifically usability—is constantly growing. Usability and user-experience researchers are broadening research into studies involving social issues, accessibility, reconciliation, and user advocacy. Amplifying Voices in UX explores the theme of balance in design and UX in three main areas: curriculum design that includes empathy, service learning, and design justice; design and balance for effective medical and health communication; and design to create balance in labor, social, civic, and political movements.
The Routledge Handbook of Social Justice in Technical and Professional Communication
This handbook interrogates and illustrates contemporary approaches to technical and professional communication (TPC) by focusing on emerging issues in the field. Using a social justice-centered approach, the handbook provides a view of the current state of the discipline and highlights emerging directions and perspectives that will influence the trajectory of the field in the coming years. It is divided into five interrelated parts: Disciplinarity Pedagogy Practice Social Change Intersections: Cultures and Communities Acknowledging that TPC is always embedded and participating in specific power structures, The Routledge Handbook of Social Justice in Technical and Professional Communication offers readers a way forward, a future imagined and re-imagined, and presents scholarship that is progress-in-process for TPC. Providing frameworks and strategies for embracing a social justice-driven approach, this handbook will be of interest to scholars, teachers, administrators, community leaders, and workplace and industry practitioners in the field of TPC.
Designing for Social Justice
Exploring the intersection of design research and community engagement, this book highlights the ways in which design and design theories can be used to address social justice issues and promote positive change in communities. Contributors illuminate the theoretical, ethical, and pedagogical dimensions of design-driven methods in community-engaged projects, exploring their potential to address critical social justice issues such as ethnic and racial justice, gender equality, disability justice, cultural diversity, equity, and environmental justice. Chapters examine various aspects of community-engaged practices, including the use of design theories to fuel social justice work in community partnerships, ethical issues surrounding the use of multimodal resources and new media technologies, and pedagogies for promoting social change. Addressing the opportunities and challenges of design and design methods in community engagement, this collection offers suggestions for promoting social justice through technical and professional communication activities and pedagogies. Investigating the design of community-engaged projects from a critical standpoint, this book will appeal to scholars and students in the fields of Technical and Professional Communication, Writing and Composition Studies, and Rhetoric. It will also be of interest to administrators, community partners, and professionals working in service-learning contexts.
