A 21st Century Education: On the Strategic Implementation of DEI Frameworks into University Course Design
Arianna Chen
Informed by the practices of faculty across the University; pedagogical development at peer and aspirant institutions; and scholarly literature, the aim of this research is to analyze the following questions: how do we create an environment that simultaneously affirms diversity and foregrounds it within holistic learning opportunities? How do we shape an education of kinship, between students and faculty, that truly “belong[s] to them” and reflects the “real meaning” of diversity in our city? This research argues that through the meaningful implementation of DEI pedagogy into the core curricula and departmental requirements of the University, students can maintain values of kinship and remain critical of existing hegemonies that shape everyday life.
