About DID
DID (Dialogue, Inclusion, Democracy) Lab creates inclusive spaces that support the development of well-informed and engaged students through deliberative, community-based discourse to promote equity and democracy.
This includes facilitating courses, workshops, and scholarship on dialogue, diversity, and civic engagement. Our approach to civil discourse draws on the findings from a multi-year research project sponsored by the Kettering Foundation on “deliberative pedagogy” that led to the publications of Deliberative Pedagogy (2017) and Creating Space for Democracy (2019).
D.I.D Wall Mission
To create a safe space that supports the development of well-informed and engaged students through civil discourse.
D.I.D Guidelines for Use
- Engage responsibly with the question on the board and keep responses relevant
- Ideas should be respectful of people’s humanity and dignity with regards to race, religion, class, gender, sexual orientation, and gender identity
- Respect all responses, as this is a free speech zone
- Speak for yourself, not as a representative of others or groups
