What
has your experience been with in-person classes so far
this fall? Do you have any inclusive pedagogical advice
on this topic?
"I don�t have any in person classes so I can�t judge how
that is going apart from what my peers have told me.
From my own experiences with online courses, it has been
pretty accessible in my opinion. My professors have
adapted syllabi, have allowed room for students to reach
out to discuss anything personal going on, and during
the course if anyone needs to turn their video off or if
someone is in a space where wifi connection is not
great, those have both been acceptable in all of my
classes as long as there is communication there. The
communication is also on the end of the professors so
that it is not only on students to reach out. All of my
classes are in the Gender Studies department and the
English Department, and both of my professors are women,
which very well may affect how adaptable and accessible
my online experiences have been this fall."
"I have one in person class and it is once a week. When
it�s that time a week to go to that in person class I
have to really prepare myself. It�s starting to get cold
outside and even though I have been dressing
appropriately for the weather I find myself distracted
asking questions like what if I get a cold/get sick. My
other classes are all online and I like my professors,
but I feel like they�re moving faster than usual. I wish
my professors knew that online classes does not mean
they should speed up lessons. That�s not inclusive at
all. If some of us are behind and the professors just
move on because the lectures are recorded it is very
discouraging. If anything I think professors should slow
down because we are still fighting a pandemic and it
affects us all
differently."
