Inclusion Lab Series: Equity Focus in Instructional Design + Delivery Methods

Including an equity-focus into our instructional design and delivery models can help eliminate disparities in the experience of traditionally underserved, marginalized, and underrepresented populations in the workplace. The short-term goal of this Inclusion Lab is to provide a platform to explore the components for designing and delivering training content through an equity and inclusion lens. The long-term goal is a practitioner-created equity assessment tool.

This lab will provide the opportunity to explore ways to foster belonging in our learning environments by:

• Identifying and removing any stereotypes and/or unconscious bias within our instructional design and content delivery methods

• Intentionally encouraging representation, access, and engagement in learning, including accommodating varying abilities

• Considering ways in which instructional design and training can advance equity
