2018 AAAE Conference

To put action behind the call for social change, justice, and equal representation within the arts sector, it is important to reassess the dominant narratives perpetuated by our instruction methods within arts-based academic programs. Informed by the work of Linda Tuhiwai-Smith, this interactive workshop provides a look into how decolonized methodologies can be applied to create more equitable assignments and assessment practices. Participants will analyze assignments and assessments from arts leadership courses—showing the before and after—and then practice writing their own decolonized assignments and assessments.
