Seminar lecture with the attendants from different GB universities was thematically representative as it was the only lecture from Central Eastern Europe, which, besides, problematized domineering policies in EU research on new media in children. The lecturer drew attention of the present colleagues to the questionable epistemic and methodical approaches, characteristic of grand survey research in the respective field. Another accent was put on the differences between the Slovenian and British thematizations of proliferation of porn in children (- seminar series “Young Women in Movement: sexualities, vulnerabilities, needs and norms” at Goldsmiths, University of London).

COBISS.SI-ID: 32512045The contribution is based on feminist epistemology and its concept of situated knowledges. With the help of this theoretical framework, the author present the hidden curriculum as an extremely important concept in researching education that enables "methodological flexibility and context-specific understandings", and guards "against overwriting individual specificities with externally imposed ‘objective’ systems of meaning". By concentrating on the category of gender (but not excluding other social axes of domination) the author tries to tackle the common sense preventing an insight into the specificity of context and (self)reflection.

COBISS.SI-ID: 2222935Information-communication technologies (ICTs) are introduced as a influential tools that remake our bodies and introduce new social relations. New media discourses and their influence of gendering and sexualization of children and minors are presented as conducted in author's own research work (especially in the course of the project “Epistemological and Cultural Aspects of the Construction of Sexuality and Violence in New Information Communication Technologies (ICT) and Their Acceptance in Children and Adolescents”). The results of qualitative research, obtained with focus groups method, indicate the ambivalences (modernity/tradition) in the respondents' attitudes and behaviours, but the discriminatory traditional engendering is highlighted when the questions of corporeality and family organisation arise.
B.03 Paper at an international scientific conference
COBISS.SI-ID: 2444119This contribution focuses on some of the problems which are inherent in contemporary gender research in education. It uses feminist epistemology as its conceptual framework and develops the argument along the lines of hegemonic "theories", i.e. theories that are not recognised as such, since they are perceived as common sense or a necessity (according to S. Ahmed). This epistemological framework is of great importance in the field of educational research, which, in recent years, has been permeated by various assertions of "progress" by girls/women, and consequently by changes in education and educational research and their impacts on opportunities for girls/women.
B.03 Paper at an international scientific conference
COBISS.SI-ID: 2360919The paper presented at the meeting of tutors of children's parliaments was thematically related to the issues problematized in the social groups of children, parents and teachers. The published abstract and the presentation of the research results itself led to two further invitations, first to lecture in one of the centres of ZPMS (Association of Friends of Youth) and to give an interview for a journal.
