5. Critical Communication Pedagogy as a Framework for teaching Difference and Organizing Brenda J. Allen . A s organizational Communication scholars increasingly respond to calls to investigate difference and organizing, I urge them to heed a parallel and equally pressing need to incorporate differ- ence into their teaching . Scholars and teachers should strive to help stu- dents understand how varying dimensions of social identity articulate with one another, with a focus on the consequences of those articulations for organizing (Simpson & Allen, 2006). While difference is a focus of study in several fields, Communication scholars can offer students a uniquely communicative understanding of these issues and how humans (re)produce them. Such an approach can provide pivotal insight and understanding to prepare students to interact effectively and humanely in contemporary organizational contexts, where matters of difference are ever more apparent and important.
