Curriculum &DEI queries

  My Developing Scholarly Interests Early in the semester, I wrote about an area or topic I would like to research. Now it's time to discuss how my ideas have evolved.  Question one: what is your current research interest? My current research interest lies in exploring the intersection of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and Public Pedagogy Curriculum Initially, my focus was primarily on how DEI practices in teacher education address issues of race, class, and gender. However, over time, I have broadened my perspective covering not just teacher education but also informal and community-based settings (cultural literacy, and by extension, intercultural competence).   By combining DEI principles with public pedagogy, I aim to explore DEI, and how it can be integrated to enhance rich educational experiences, both within and outside of formal school settings. Question two: How have your experiences this semester impacted this area of interest? My research...

Topical Readings for the second submission   Task:   Synthesize all articles from both submissions. I will be synthesizing seven articles for this task. These articles I read resonate most with my research and areas of interest with a focus on gender inequalities, as I am particularly committed to promoting and contributing to SDG Goals 4 and 5. Additionally, I explored articles on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and public pedagogy, as they align with my interest in fostering inclusive practices. I will begin my synthesis with the first four articles, which address gender inequalities, and then discuss the last three articles, which focus on DEI and public pedagogy. These latter articles emphasize education beyond formal school systems and provide valuable insights into inclusion and inclusive practices both within and outside formal educational settings.   The first article by Shepherd, S. (2017) explores “ why there are so few female leaders in high...
