Hello! I’m Amy Archambault and excited to be attending IEH after a lovely invitation from Maha! This was a great activity and I am absolutely going to use it somewhere in my teaching and/or fac dev spaces. Thank you for sharing!
Just a recap of my trading card…I live with my husband, 2 teens, and 2 dogs in Lewisville, North Carolina, US. I love being outside hiking and exploring the world! Reading, creating mixed media collages/books, and eating chocolate are some of my favorite things to do. Currently, I work as the Interim Director/Assistant Dir of Instructional Design in the Office of Online Education at Wake Forest University. I’ve been navigating the intersectional spaces of social justice, design thinking/justice, and inclusion in my work as an instructional designer and continue to explore what that means/looks like when incorporating that into my work. I’m excited to learn more about IEH!
Looking forward to meeting all of you!
Amy
Thanks for taking the plunge here, Amy, and glad you enjoyed the activity! I would love some day to discuss the tensions and intersections of design thinking and inclusion with you some day… I started a course on Equity Meet (or By?) Design where I was supposed to learn more about that, but haven’t gotten around to finishing it…
I’m sooo looking forward to your contribution to the IEH series!
Oh, that collage looks so cool, Amy! And please say hello to North Carolina from me! I just moved recently from Texas, and I am still missing the TREES so bad. There are trees in Texas too. But not the same trees! And not as many! Yay trees! And if you are ever in Austin, come see me and I promise to offer you excellent cocoa to drink; that’s my chocolate-guilty-pleasure of choice. 🙂
