Everyday Inclusion - An Interactive Journey
Everyday Inclusion - An Interactive Journey
This is a three-part VR blended learning course exploring Unconscious Bias, Inclusion, Microagressions and Intersectionality.
Everyday Inclusion has been co-designed with Diversity and Inclusion experts at an Ivy League University.
The VR interactive experiences give you a first-hand experience of bias. They also include wrap-around learning material on unconscious bias and inclusion as well as additional resources for self-directed learning.
In this experience you will step into the shoes of Tamara, the new hire.
"Hi, I am Tamara. I’m an organizational design specialist and I’ve been working at Cornell for 4 months now. I’ve worked really hard over my 20+ year career to hone my skills and I was excited to bring that experience to this team. So far my time at Cornell has been, uh, interesting... Everyone’s been nice for the most part and I really like my colleagues, but these little subtle and not so subtle things keep happening that make me feel… well.. you’ll see. "
