Join hypothes.is for Inclusivity and Social Annotation: Fostering Diverse Learning Environments

Date: Thursday, March 30

Time: 11 AM Central Time

Duration: 60 mins

Social annotation is a powerful tool for collaborative learning and engagement, allowing learners to interact with the content and with each other. But how can we ensure that social annotation is truly inclusive and fosters diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in our classrooms?

In this episode, we will explore best practices and strategies for using social annotation to promote DEI. We will discuss how to:

  • Choose content that reflects diverse perspectives and experiences
  • Facilitate respectful and constructive discussions
  • Encourage participation from all learners, including those from underrepresented groups and different socio-economic backgrounds
  • Evaluate the impact of social annotation on DEI goals

Our speakers include experts in education, DEI, and social annotation from the University of District Columbia, Florida State University, and the University of Southern Mississippi, who will share their insights and experiences.

Whether you’re new to social annotation or an experienced user, this Liquid Margins episode will provide valuable insights and practical tips for creating inclusive learning environments.
