Our accomplishments were made possible by an amazing groundswell of people using our open and free educational resources like MIT OpenCourseWare. Here are highlights from the last academic year: https://bit.ly/47iH4nD #OpenEducation #Education #OnlineLearning #Teaching #Learning #Pedagogy #Research #AcademicNews #EducationNews #OnlineEducation #OER #OpenEducationalResources #Innovation

**Pedagogical Reflection:** Join the conversation on the challenges of teaching integration and synthesis in education. Let's explore how the Adaptive Subject Pedagogy Model addresses these hurdles.

The movement towards inclusive education is gathering momentum throughout the world. But how is it realized in practice? The volumes within this series will examine the arguments for inclusive schools and the evidence for the success of inclusion

Earlier in the week a groundbreaking study was released by Rutgers University Social Perception Lab and National Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) on the impact of DEI (diversity, equity & inclusion) training programs on three (3) themes -Race, Religion and Caste in the U.S. Findings are stunning! DEI training actually increases hostility on perceived ideas of the 3 themes & based on scenarios that are not even real. Not really what anyone needs in any society. DEI is a great idea but when implemented with agendas behind it can be toxic. CoHNA tweet is eye opening highlighting the findings about caste perceptions that become more embedded in people’ psyche when they receive DEI sponsored training from ‘caste activists’ like Equality Labs. Please read this tweet and the NCRI report here. https://lnkd.in/ddFkuUUM https://lnkd.in/dD_-hgqP

The latest article to be published in #IJSP is here! 'Dancing the fine line: developing critical agency with transgressive social pedagogy?' Morten Kromann Nielsen and Gry Marie Tybjerg (2024). https://lnkd.in/eUknGHzU

This is a suggestive post on experiential learning and active pedagogy. But how far does or can this apply in a subject like English? Outside of drama, higher-level English has not usually been centred around learning through embodied experience, in real or simulated environments, and with other people. Rather, the primary 'experience' is what happens when the student encounters, imagines, and closely reads flat text, and then discusses that in the classroom or essays. As I'm trying to imagine the possibilities of VR in English education, I'd be really interested to hear challenges to my assumptions above, or to discover where others have found opportunities for experiential learning in the English HE classroom.
