Abstract
In an epoch where individuals are constantly seeking knowledge and aspiring to attain a higher level of education, it is important to pause and critically analyze the salient differences between having an education and being educated. Teaching at a homogeneous, predominantly Christian institution for many years has elucidated the key differences in attaining an education and becoming educated. It is important to note, without a doubt, pedagogy impacts learning outcomes; with that being said. This institution of higher learning, in its attempt to create space for inclusivity in the class room. This is being done by establishing an Inclusive Excellence Academy (of which I am the co-leader). The main purpose of the academy being to take a deeper dive into the nuance of educating faculty members about meeting the needs of learners form a plethora of backgrounds, abilities, cultures etc. evidenced by the reconstructing of curriculum design.
