Hosted by the FHIS Pedagogy Clinic and UBC Centre de la Francophonie, in participation with the Journée Internationale des Professeur·e·s de français
Discover how teaching languages can led to unconscious biases related to the representation of gender identities and racism.
This Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Teaching Practices Workshop is open to all members of the UBC community.
The event will have three stages:
- Movie screening about several workshops related to the representation of gender identities in the French classroom that were held by École secondaire Jules Verne and Conseil Scolaire Francophone de Vancouver.
- Q&A session on inclusive teaching practices based on how the students understand them.
- Interactive workshop on unconscious biases related to racism.
The event will be presented in English or French (depending on the audience’s preference). Snacks and drinks will be provided.
Facilitators:
The event will be facilitated by Caroline Lebrec, FHIS Pedagogy Clinic Coordinator, and student partners Shreya Diwan (FHIS) and Savindya Mudadeniya (Global Fund, CCEL), in collaboration with community-partner Ingrid Broussillon from Griottes Polyglottes.
