can support practitioners to put this principle into practice.

Areas of practice Considerations
Identify and challenge assumptions

 

Have I understood what may be centred, what is given little focus and what is absent from my curriculum?

 


 

Have I taken steps to ensure the examples, case studies or scenarios used in teaching and assessment represent a diversity of contexts?

 


 

Have I built opportunities into activities or assessment for students to critique historic lack of diversity or equality in subject disciplines, and consider what they might do about it?

 

 

 

Diversify reading lists and critique canon

 

Have I worked with my library/EDI team to diversify the materials students are referred to?

 


 

Have I created opportunities for students to critique subject knowledge and the ‘canon’ from the perspective of diversity and inclusion?

 

Diversity curriculum content

 

Have I considered the language, images, case studies and cultural references used in course materials to ensure that they are diverse and positive reflect protected characteristics?

 


 

Have I built opportunities into activities or assessment for students to study diverse topics and examples of their choice?

 

Accessibility of curriculum

 

Have I checked if I am following Universal Design for Learning Principles in the development of the curriculum? You can check if you are here Guidelines - The Principles in Practice - AHEAD

 


 

Have I considered the reasonable accommodations I may need to put in place for students to meet the learning outcomes?

 


 

Is guidance on accessibility, inclusion available within the TU that I can share with my students.

 


 

Are my digital curriculum and resources WCAG compliant?
