A post COVID description of my classroom is as follows: Historically, pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different. It is a portal, a gateway between one world and the next. We can choose to walk through it, dragging the carcasses of our prejudice and hatred, our avarice, our data banks and dead ideas, our dead rivers and smoky skies behind us. Or we can walk through lightly, with little luggage, ready to imagine another world. And ready to fight for it." Arundhati Roy. 1. We played a role in perpetuating systemic bias and exclusion. Now we must play a role in dismantling it. 2. The problems of education are in the design, not in the students. 3. To design for all, design for the students who are most marginalized by the existing educational system. Take this journey with me.
