Following on from our presentation on the 15th of December at the ALT winter conference, we would like to invite ALT members and other colleagues to provide feedback on the Anti-racism in Learning Technology toolkit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The toolkit provides a series of questions as prompts so that individuals, teams and institutions can explore ways to consider anti-racism in their practice. It is intended to be bespoke and adaptable for your context, providing considerations for anti-racism content. The toolkit is not meant to be prescriptive but serves as a guide to use in the best way for your context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The toolkit is linked here<\/a> –<\/a> It contains an introduction and context, a blog area, two tools and supporting materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The tool\u2019 section of the site links to a form containing a series of prompts one could use while working on a learning technology project or piece of work, by using the prompts to use and consider what actions could then be taken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea behind the toolkit is to emphasise that there are no prescribed answers or approaches in developing anti-racist content \u2013 there is no \u2018script\u2019 to follow. We are instead providing a tool to prompt and guide reflection and action alongside engagement with existing resources and conversations. For each area of prompts, the \u2018further resources\u2019 section of the site offers suggestions to that end. The broad categories of prompts the toolkit provides are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
