Educational Inclusion and Belonging Cohort

Promoting inclusion and belonging in learning and teaching

The School of Music, Dance and Theatre Educational Inclusion and Belonging cohort brings together faculty with campus thought leaders in education for the development of pedagogical and curricular initiatives that promote inclusion and belonging in learning and teaching within Music, Dance and Theatre.

Through a year-long engagement that includes seminars and one-on-one peer coaching, cohort members will train to lead in advancing educational inclusion at ASU and beyond. In addition to piloting, developing and applying revisions to their individual teaching practices, cohort members build communities of practice in which to envision expanding access and inclusion throughout the School. Guided by Associate Dean for Culture and Access Melita Belgrave, the cohort also undertakes a process of dream seeding and harvesting throughout the year, imagining and enacting better presents and futures in our learning spaces.
