Winter 2018 – Pedagogies of Diversity, Inclusion, Justice, and Equity
Marsal Family School of Education Building
INSTRUCTOR: Maren Oberman
This mini-seminar (four 3-hour sessions) is for instructors interested in moving the concepts of diversity, inclusion, justice, and equity (DIJE) from the theoretical to the practical in their university courses. Participants will establish an essential question to drive an inquiry into their own teaching and/or facilitation practice. Readings, discussions, and self-exploration will push us to consider how our own pedagogies can more fundamentally account for DIJE. We will examine both scholarly and empirical texts, as well as applied strategies and practices. We will also consider our own identities and how human interaction plays a crucial role in pedagogy.
