How can we create more just academic spaces that eliminate barriers to access and ensure equity for everyone in the university community?
About the Event
In this hybrid event, we will explore how to create more just academic spaces that reduce/eliminate barriers to access and ensure equity for everyone in the university community. We are interested in this topic generally, and also specifically as it relates to the University of Guelph.
This interactive session will engage critically with anti-oppression frameworks and suggest ways to apply an equity and inclusion lens to teaching and learning. Anti-oppressive teaching and learning involves both critical and practical examinations of individual, interpersonal, systemic, and cultural barriers to full participation for equity-deserving groups.
This session will explore equity and inclusion throughout the teaching & learning life cycle and prompt discussions about equitable and inclusive pedagogy, curriculum design, instruction, and classroom environments.
