A while ago we had the opportunity to participate in a Webinar about the need to decolonize the curriculum and we met Maud Waret (you can find her on Twitter as @profprofmfl). Listening to her was extremely inspiring, and from that moment on have been trying to make our lessons and resources as inclusive as we can.
Although we have a long way to go, from our position of privilege we strive to make all students feel represented and included. Our classes are becoming more diverse, and that is something we should celebrate.
The vast majority of textbooks and resources that we know about the topic of descriptions do not include enough vocabulary to allow all students to describe themselves, their friends or their family. And that’s why we felt the need to create this resource (thanks Maud for your advice!).
At the moment we only have it in Spanish, but we would like to do it in other languages as well, would you be interested?
Hace un tiempo tuvimos la oportunidad de participar en un webminario sobre la necesidad de descolonizar el currículum educativo y conocimos a Maud Waret (podéis encontrarla en Twitter como @profprofmfl). Escucharla fue extremadamente inspirador, y a partir de aquel momento nos pusimos manos a la obra para intentar hacer nuestras clases y recursos más inclusivos.
Aunque nos queda mucho camino por recorrer, desde nuestra posición de privilegio nos esforzamos para que todos los estudiantes se sientan representados e incluidos.
La gran mayoría de libros de texto y recursos que conocemos para el tema de las descripciones no incluyen suficiente vocabulario como para permitir que los estudiantes puedan describirse a ellos mismos, a sus amigos o a sus familiares. Y de ahí surgió la necesidad de crear este recurso (¡gracias Maud por tus consejos!).
De momento lo tenemos sólo en español, pero nos gustaría hacerlo en otros idiomas también, ¿te interesaría?
