In this playbook we’ve gathered resources that we found helpful as we’ve engaged in Advanced Inclusive R&D. We also share example work by the AFG community—learners, researchers, educators, developers, organizers, activists, caregivers, leaders, and school administrators who are collaborating on community-based educational innovation.
Too often in schools, Black and Latinx learners are left out of the process of developing educational tools intended for them. The best tools should be available to meet the needs of every learner, and be designed with and for educators, learners, and caregivers who are most impacted day to day, in and outside of classrooms.
This playbook is a guide that highlights processes for building products and programs based on a radically different approach to what inclusion should mean. In this playbook we’ve gathered resources that we found helpful as we’ve engaged in Advanced Inclusive R&D. We also share example work by the AFG community—learners, researchers, educators, developers, organizers, activists, caregivers, leaders, and school administrators who are collaborating on community-based educational innovation.
We offer readers a sneak peek into our processes—at the same time that we are developing them—so that we can all learn and grow as we strive for a better educational future for each and every child. Whether you’re a researcher, educator, school leader, or someone who is curious about R&D, we think you’ll find value in the processes we describe, the principles we embody, and the examples we share.
