Article Synopsis
- Educators recognize the importance of creating an inclusive and safe environment to discuss sensitive topics in diverse classrooms, but effective evidence-based approaches are scarce.
- A semester-long discussion format based on Tracy Kidder's nonfiction book facilitated student engagement with global public health issues and personal reflections on citizenship roles.
- The activities not only encouraged student voices and empathy but also fostered a deeper understanding of empirical and ethical considerations, making them adaptable for various educational settings aimed at inclusive pedagogy.
