Creating a Sense of Belonging in Students Using Culturally Responsive and Inclusive Teaching Practices

The presenters will report on the findings from the focus group interviews, which were conducted at UVic for the project "Developing an open toolkit for inclusive
pedagogy in library instruction and consultation". Participants are invited to join an open discussion focusing on questions pertaining to inclusive pedagogy, culturally responsive teaching and UDL principles. The presenters will lead and facilitate the discussion by providing concrete examples of how we have experienced some scenarios that can make minoritized and underrepresented people uncomfortable in library instruction sessions, library interactions, but also workplace situations.
