Inclusive Pedagogy for Faculty-Directed Education Abroad Programs

Inclusive pedagogy intentionally makes space for and seeks out diverse perspectives, one of the core principles of education abroad done well. It encourages a diverse range of student participation. It strengthens the quality of the course and the education abroad program for everyone. Current discussions of inclusive pedagogy are informed by the efforts of forward-thinking centers of teaching and learning centers such as Georgetown University’s, which frames inclusive pedagogy as a combination of course content, teaching methods, assessment, climate, and power, and is grounded in the work of Bass, Baxter Magolda, Bennett, hooks, and Tatum, among others.

In this webinar, we will discuss key concepts of inclusive pedagogy, including a sense of belonging, disruption of the canons of our academic disciplines, the perils of “native informants” (hooks), diffusing tense classroom discussions, and co-creation of resource lists. We will also explore ways to apply tenets of inclusive pedagogy to education abroad settings.
