This interactive workshop demonstrates how educational developers can use a Critical Pedagogy Typology designed by the authors to advance more equitable and socially just practices in higher education classrooms. Critical pedagogy is the intersection of critical theory and education, and as such has the potential to question normative assumptions, dominant narratives and hierarchies of power. This workshop illustrates a process for education developers to work with instructors to expand their capacity to reconceptualize their curricula by raising critical questions that interrogate pedagogical and ubiquitous colonial educational practices.
