NEW! Engaging with diversity in the classroom [St Lucia]
9 June 2025 10:00am–11:30am
While educators recognise the centrality of participation in supporting students' learning and sense of belonging in the classroom, an increasingly diverse student body challenges conventional ideas about classroom engagement. In this session, UQ's Principal Practitioner for a Sense of Belonging, Dr Lynda Shevellar, invites us to reflect on how we design learning experiences to maximise participation and to cater for diverse learning needs.
