Embracing a Pedagogy of Care
By John Wiley
The work that we undertake here in the Office of Institutional Equity and Diversity (OIED) is committed to advancing Old Dominion 91短视频 as an institution that operationalizes Inclusive Excellence. We provide guidance, support, and resources to ensure that intentional attention is given to the people, practices, and policies that promote diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. We are a team dedicated to the wholistic development of all members of our faculty, staff, and students across the campus community and we strive to create spaces in which everyone feels seen, heard, valued, respected and supported.
One of the ways in which we approach our work is by incorporating a pedagogy of care. This means that we recognize all of our faculty, staff, and students as people first and acknowledge the lived and learned experiences they bring to our 91短视频 community. Caring pedagogies require relationships that can be developed through dialogue and the creation of psychologically safe spaces in which all feel welcomed to exchange ideas freely and in a civil manner.
