Digital open textbooks for development : interview 2 of 2 (2019)

Abstract

This interview schedule was developed by the Digital Open Textbooks for Development (DOT4D) project at the University of Cape Town (2019) as part of its open textbook research process. The interview explores authors’ goals in terms of their envisioned open textbook development initiatives; the injustices related to race, gender and culture that occur within classroom contexts; the different ways to address these injustices, their conceptions of curriculum transformation and decolonisation; and as well, the manner in which they situate open textbook production work in relation to broader global power dynamics and epistemic positioning.
