    1. Maha: [00:27:10] Like trying to bring out whatever elements of difference we have in the class and trying to see if people are willing to talk about that and bring that up and make it part of our identity. Like one of the things I do in my classes is ask my students to do an alternative CV at the beginning with class. This is an activity we developed for digital writing month. And it’s about presenting yourself, not with what degrees you have or whatever that you do for regular CV, but how you want people to know you. And I don’t specify what students need to say. And some of them say a lot of really interesting things about themselves and reveal those things about themselves and it makes a difference in the class.

      Ha! Found it! Adopted and adapted this activity for use in one of my courses, calling it “Cultural Curriculum” («curriculum culturel», ANT3540 Cultures & sociétés was one of the few courses I taught in French). The relevant slide is still online. The Moodle assignment isn't, partly because uO switched to Brightspace right after that semester.
