Queering Educommunication: Queer Perspectives on Learning and the Digital Ecosystem

This essay explores how queer theory can contribute to discussions in educommunication and the analysis of communication within the digital ecosystem. The central argument is that Queer Theory offers valuable insights for critically examining the subjective dimensions of how we use, communicate, and learn through ICT—especially in terms of the body, sexuality, emotions, and identity. The essay brings together different conceptual frameworks, including critical communication theory, education, and gender studies, to create a holistic reflection that views technology and gender as systems of control that shape the ways we inhabit, interact, and learn in digital spaces. This discussion draws on theoretical references, research findings, and personal experiences. Finally, it explores the intersection of queer pedagogy and educommuni-cation frameworks as a way to promote the inclusion of gender and sexual diversity in learning environments.
