Dominique Vargas, Postdoctoral Associate, ND Learning | Kaneb Center for Teaching Excellence

In recent years, there have been many calls to “decolonize your curriculum” or to “decenter your syllabus,” but what does this work actually entail? In this session, participants will gain an introduction to decolonized pedagogy and will explore ways to diversify course materials and teach to a range of student identities. We will also discuss the pitfalls of using decolonization as a metaphor for teaching and learning (Tuck & Yang, 2012).
