Your Journey Starts Here

  • This foundational course introduces participants to the equityXdesign process and focuses on bringing the voices of the marginalized, such as students, into the design process. Participants will engage with key concepts in designing for equity, learn how to create transformative empathy, explore the intersection of COVID-19 and racism, and iterate on equitable design solutions.

  • Equitable design demands that practices and power balances change and evolve — that we redefine roles, revalue ways of knowing, and reassess the ways we reach decisions. During this third course module, participants will explore the relationships between the following design principles: Design at Margins, Start with Self, and Cede Power. Participants will also create a shared language to talk about race, equity, innovation, and design, and practice using that language in order to see and define problems. At the end of the learning experience, participants will be able to assess their own leadership stances, innovations, and the design process. Participants will learn to speak the future and design the future as they test their new equitable innovations on a small scale.

    This learning experience is for leaders, teachers, edge finders and edge movers looking to expand their understanding and perspective of observed equity challenges.

  • Relationships are often governed by preexisting assumptions that can perpetuate exclusionary assumptions and biased practices. By making them visible, we can assess their impact and create a space for reflection and repair. During this final course module, participants will explore the relationships between the following design principles: Design at Margins, Start with Self, and Make the Invisible Visible. In the course, we will explore metrics and data that will assess how our classrooms, schools, and organizations are becoming more equitable. Participants will learn how to have their equitable innovations grow deep roots and scale in their school and/or organization—they will learn to speak and design the future as they test their new equitable innovations on a small scale.

    This learning experience is for leaders, teachers, edge finders and edge movers looking for new ways of integrating equitable practices and new relationships into their leadership and organizational structure.
