Decolonizing your Curriculum II: Syllabus Workshop
In this session, participants will be asked to bring a syllabus they wish to “decolonize” in a workshop setting. They will have the opportunity to revise existing course policies for equity and inclusion, explore methods for diversifying course content, and articulate their goals for generating a classroom community. Because “decolonizing the curriculum” is a process that requires continual revision, we will begin workshopping our ideas with other attendees while also creating an individual action plan for future practice.
Learning Goals
After successfully completing this workshop you will be able to:
- Evaluate examples of “decolonizing the curriculum”
- Course policies and goals
- Text selection/content
