Assignment 4 – Egalitarian Pedagogy in Digital Contexts

Describe what egalitarian pedagogy means to you and how it can be applied in a digital learning scenario. Propose an inclusive digital activity reflecting egalitarian principles. Explain how your approach ensures equal participation for learners of different genders, ages, abilities or backgrounds. Write between 120 and 150 words. Additional sources may be used; if this is the case, include links.

Feel free to constructively comment on other learners’ posts in the same thread.

I understood egalitarian pedagogy as an educational approach that focuses on fostering equality and shared power dynamics in the classroom. This pedagogy can be integrated in the digital teaching scenario with the use of different web tools which promotes Egalitarian pedagogy in digital teaching. It boosts gender equality, creates mutual respect between the teacher and the students, creates democratization. At the same time it provokes curiosity, promotes engagement and leads to better learning in students. For a language teacher, an inclusive digital activity reflecting egalitarian principles would be a Collaborative Digital Storytelling: “A Day in Our Inclusive Community.” First discuss what fairness and equality mean for them. Then each student uses a digital tool which they want to use to write and illustrate something special about themselves and family. Then do the digital compilation and share online. In this way everyone gets to participate. Thank you.
