Ask a friend, a colleague, a family member, or someone else who knows you if you can talk through your responses to the questions below with them. Or just talk through them out loud with yourself, a pet, or a plant!

Spend about 10 minutes doing this.

• What are your working definitions of equity and accessibility? 
• How has the Teach@CUNY Summer Institute contributed so far to those definitions?
• How have your experiences at the Graduate Center contributed to them? 
• Do you see intersections between equity and accessibility? Are they the same thing?
• How might equity and accessibility differ from equality, inclusion, diversity, or social justice? 
• How might the online learning context worsen existing inequities and make spaces less accessible? What might the online learning context afford that the face-to-face context doesn’t offer?
• What in your personal and academic / intellectual experiences as a teacher, a learner, and a person who embodies many identity positions has prepared you to answer these questions?

If you feel comfortable, tell us how your conversation went on the #equity-and-access Slack channel. What did it feel like to reflect in this way? Please make sure to mention that you’re on Module 1, Part 1 since we might be working through the workshop at a different pace.
