A Dyslexic Student’s Vision for Inclusive Education
Time
10:00 AM - 10:50 AM (EDT)
Description

Imagine choosing a university through the lens of a neurodivergent student asking one singular question, "Will I be able to thrive here?" This session explores how higher education can serve the strengths of neurodiverse learners through embracing inclusive teaching methodologies alongside individual learning strategies. Through personal storytelling (as a dyslexic person myself) and practical examples, the session will cover how inclusive strategies within and outside the classroom can work to create a new understanding of how we can learn. The session will invite participants to rethink what inclusion looks like and how it could be implemented in practice.
