I am on panel discussion this Friday discussing marginalized peoples in the classroom. ltc.uvic.ca/servicesprograms/letstalkaboutteaching.php SESSION D4 Universalizing Student Success HHB128 Moderator: Tye Landels, English Panel: Liana Robinson, Society for Students with a Disability, Daphne Shaed, transgender activist, Tari Ajadi, 3M National Student Fellow, TBD representative from UVic Women’s Centre As a site of social instruction, practice, and performance, the classroom has the potential to produce behaviours that silence underprivileged positionalities. What challenges, inequalities, and other forms of oppression do students who come from underprivileged positionalities, intersecting and otherwise, encounter when attempting to learn in the postsecondary classroom? How might instructors subvert oppressive social attitudes in the classroom to create more equal and just learning environments? This panel will bring together the voices of undergraduate and graduate student leaders, representatives, and activists to address such questions and develop an agenda to universalize student success. Five panellists (TBA) will represent the diversity of perspectives inherent to a discussion of social justice.
