Exclusion to Inclusion by Dr. Jules Winters https://padlet.com/jwinters41/z37zjyua86iymhon Moving from exclusion to inclusion, using the experience and expertise of our group. Thinking of ways to include affirmation, macro or micro, into our classrooms and academic environment. en-us 2022-08-16 02:35:17 UTC 2026-01-07 21:01:03 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/954209276/430fe64b454ba596d552ec86d975cc54/FLOSS_logo_w_text.png jwinters41 https://padlet.com/jwinters41/z37zjyua86iymhon/wish/2261804736 Click the + symbol under each section to add your post
  1. Write examples of times that you felt included or excluded, or witnessed an excluding/including behavior, in an academic environment -- no matter how minor!  Or, list an example of something that you have done or want to do to try to help people feel more included.  Title your post with Inclusion or Exclusion, and put it under those sections.
  2. Liking posts:  Exclusion: "Like" post if you have also experienced or witnessed this. Inclusion: "Like" post if you like this or have tried this.
  3.  Response:  How could that exclusion be made inclusive instead?  Or other comments/clarifications/etc on the existing posts

However, it was a Science Festival type thing. It helped to bring the community together for a day.
