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.

1. Gain a broader awareness of equity and inclusion in teaching and learning and understand connections between a sense of belonging and teaching excellence
2. Identify and apply key concepts, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-oppression to the teaching & learning life cycle, instructional and curriculum design, and facilitation
3. Identify and apply anti-oppressive frameworks that act as catalysts for individual, interpersonal, systemic, and cultural changes
