What We Will Learn TogetherParticipants will…
discuss and define the relationship between inclusivity, equity, transformative-learning, experiential pedagogy, and the developmental process
identify what it does to the inclusiveness of their practice when the focus is on the process
compare and contrast what their practice looks like currently to a more transformative-learning, experiential pedagogy
articulate next steps for exploring a more inclusive, transformative-learning, experiential pedagogy practice

Equity?
![Page 9: Sarah Schoper, Ph.D. Emily Bahr Western Illinois University](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56816081550346895dcfab9b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Equity Acknowledges that individual learners
bring with them differences in backgrounds, experiences, and needs
No uniform, equal, one-size-fits-all way to achieve intended outcomes because the system is inherently unfair

Transformative-Learning Changes how the learner knows, not
just what the learner knows
![Page 12: Sarah Schoper, Ph.D. Emily Bahr Western Illinois University](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56816081550346895dcfab9b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How Do You Define…
Experiential Pedagogy?
![Page 13: Sarah Schoper, Ph.D. Emily Bahr Western Illinois University](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56816081550346895dcfab9b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Experiential Pedagogy Learner is an active participant, not a passive
recipient of information Partnership between learner and educator Learning is grounded in the student’s lived
experience Encourages reflection Learner constructs knowledge

Developmental Process Not separate from learning Moves from simple to complex Underlying ebb and flow Prompted by a dissonance in the learner’s
life

Myths It demands a lot of resources Planning process is a free-for-all It is time consuming It is unknown to us Harder than what we are doing now Educators must give up all of their control

Personal Experience Example
One experience, two perspectives
“I'm just tired of feeling completely invisible in every conversation I ever hear about sexual orientation and feeling like I have to try to force myself to fit into a theory or community that wasn't actually meant for me if I want to even try to make any sense of it.” –Emily

Personal Experience Example
One experience, two perspectives
“It also makes me wonder what other identities we are unknowingly ignoring in the conversations we have about student affairs…but if I don't know how to recognize the identities that I am accidentally overlooking, how am I supposed to do anything about it??” -Emily
