106 - Disability Studies & Education: Pedagogical Approaches to Teaching Post-Secondary Students


Listen Later

In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Keri Cameron, professor and faculty member of the Educational Support program at Sheridan College. Our roundtable discussion entails Keri's experience of using universal design for learning as her pedagogy to engage post-secondary students in critical disability issues. We've discussed about the possibilities and benefits of utilizing pedagogies to enhance student learning. This includes community advocacy projects for students to bring theories of disability into hands-on practice through series of arts-based projects, media and/or writing. We also talked about how current and future educators can open conversations around lived experiences with students as a way to build critical conversations around disability and intersectionality.
