Engaging Neurodivergent Students in the Co-Creation of Inclusive Open Educational Resources
Citations
Abstract
This 90-minute hands-on workshop explores how to engage neurodivergent students as co-creators in developing Open Educational Resources (OER). By centering Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility (IDEA), participants will learn strategies to empower students as co-designers in their education while fostering a sense of belonging and leadership. The session will highlight successful examples of neurodivergent student collaboration in OER development and provide resources for hosting student co-authored content.
Through interactive brainstorming activities, participants will generate actionable ideas for incorporating students as co-designers in their courses and enhancing the neuroinclusivity of their OER. Participants will leave with a toolkit of strategies to build more inclusive, diverse, and equitable learning environments and communities. This session is ideal for educators, administrators, and advocates seeking to foster meaningful student collaboration and advance IDEA principles within the OER landscape.
