Inclusive Pedagogy and Decolonizing the Curriculum

Inclusive Pedagogy refers to a network of pedagogical issues and strategies that center or learner outcomes and equal access. Advocates of Decolonizing the Curriculum recognize that university knowledge systems remain rooted in colonial and Western-centric worldviews and encourage faculty to alter and expand these ways of producing knowledge. Panelists will discuss how they have made inroads in their curriculum regarding Inclusive Pedagogy and Decolonizing the Curriculum. Each panelist will speak for ten minutes, and there will be ample time for questions. Closed captions will be available.
