Description
We explore ways to design course materials that recognize students and instructors lived experiences while counteracting the hidden curriculum. Through activities like gift-identification exercises and syllabus analysis, we discuss how to create spaces where everyone’s nuanced contributions are valued, and course expectations are transparent and student-centered.
