SUMMARY:Ahead Conference 2019 - Journey to Oz -Travelling Together Towards Inclusive Education
DESCRIPTION:In the classic story The Wizard of Oz\, Dorothy leads her charges through the Land of Oz to the Emerald City seeking a hearing from the all-powerful wizard. They hope to convince the wizard to use his powers to grant them all something they believe they are missing – the scarecrow\, a brain; the lion\, courage; and the tin man\, a heart. When the wizard turns out to be a charlatan\, all seems to be lost but with Dorothy’s encouragement and support\, her charges realise through the journey they have made\, that they already have the traits they wished for inside of them. \nStudents and staff in our further and higher education system are also on significant journeys – students are travelling the road to graduation and staff are navigating the move towards mainstreamed inclusion on campus. Much like in Oz\, they find that the journey itself is more important than the final destination and they find what they crave within them. \nThis international conference featuring over 50 different sessions\, delivered by more than 70 contributors\, spanning 4 continents of the world will ask: \n\nHow can our college services respond to an increasingly diverse student population and help them to release the potential within as they travel the yellow brick road towards graduation?\nHow can our teachers and academics\, recognising the journey that they themselves are on\, adapt their practice in our evolving inclusive institutions and like Dorothy\, be the catalyst our diverse students need to help them realise their aspirations?\nHow do our Disability Service Staff share their knowledge\, expertise and best practice with academics and wider student services to help them to ‘find their way home’ in this changing landscape?\n\nThis conference is for teaching staff\, student services staff and all others in the campus infrastructure interested in an inclusive approach. If students are your concern\, then there’s something here for you!
