D2L's Teach & Learn

May 11 2023 • 29 mins

In today’s show, we’re flipping the script and shining the spotlight on student voice. Honoring student voices in the education experience can take many forms. It could mean involving students in decision-making processes on campuses, recognizing them as agents of change within their own learning communities, and so many more. But one thing is clear: when institutions take the time to embrace and listen to the people they serve, it not only creates a more inclusive and equitable environment for all students, but also has the potential to revolutionize campus culture.

To discuss this topic further, we welcomed Student Voice Advocate, Kiara Williams. Kiara and Dr. Ford chatted about:

  • What is truly meant by the term ‘student voice’
  • Why honoring student voices can help make higher education institutes more equitable and inclusive
  • Two strategies for ensuring that student voices are heard
  • Advice for educators and college administrators on how to create a culture that honors student voice
