We endeavour to lead by example

Equity, diversity, and inclusion are some of the most critical aspects of learning in every institution. Diversity refers to the acknowledgment of the range of differences in the institution. Teaching for inclusion in any learning institution signifies embracing the differences among the students. On the other hand, teaching for equity allows for the differences to transform our way of thinking, learning, and acting to embrace justice and fairness. I have shared a powerpoint link below of my lesson plan of how the students learned about the history of cosmetology and discovered some of the beauty standards in different societies, beliefs, and cultures.

Cosmetology is the art and science beautifying the hair, nails, and skin. Understanding different history and cultures is very important because we discover some of the beauty standards in different societies, beliefs and cultures. it is crucial to appreciate our differences than paving the way for a world where we all stand together. The aim of this powerpoint presentation was to bring to your note, that beauty is ultimately perceived in the eyes of the beholder. The idea of beauty is hard to define as beauty comes from within .This topic is important because various cultures have used their own indigenous cosmetics that we still use today.

Integrating UDL in Course Design

UDL/DI Framework Responds to students strengths & needs. “In a diverse classroom, no single method can reach all learners. Multiple pathways to achieving goals are needed.”

• Differentiated Instruction

• Universal Design for Learning

• Culturally Responsive Pedagogy

• An anti-oppressive, anti-discrimination framework.

The detail of UDL and DI pave the way to more meaningful learning and brings a new statement into the design of solutions to learners, educators, and our communities to show how our combined knowledge is key to a more just and bountiful future.

• Develop insight and understand the needs of the learners

• Identify and develop innovative solutions to complications that students encounter

• Develop a collection of strategies and methods ( identifying, gathering, refining, testing solutions)
