Masterclass - Acknowledging Diversity 

Academy for Education and Professional Development

Delivered by Rebecca Farrington, Catherine Prescott & UoM undergraduate students
Using multimedia and promoting the student voice, we will open a discussion on diversity and its impact on the learning environment.
An opportunity to talk about experiences, good and bad, in a safe space will help share understanding of how to move forward with improving the ways we can all become more inclusive.
Practical exercises, focussing on microaggressions, will equip participants with tools to use in their daily lives.
