Not a Checkbox: Engaging in a Culture of Equitable Teaching (Decolonization, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion in Teaching & Learning Community of Practice 2023 Conference)
As academic institutions move towards post-pandemic teaching and learning, the return to “normal” has reinforced and reproduced issues of power and privilege in the academy, such as ableism, racism, and classism. In this call for collaborators, we ask learning communities at York to consider how we can engage in a culture of equitable teaching that intervenes and disrupts the flow of “normalcy.”
Equity is not a checkbox to be completed. It is a relational process of engaging in different social relations. In this collaborative conference, together, we will ask how we can cultivate safe and caring conditions in our learning spaces, structures, policies, and processes. How do we co-create flexible and adaptable strategies and systems that accommodate diverse learning needs and ways of being? What can we learn from listening to and sharing our experiences around DEDI (Decolonizing, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion)?
