About

One of SHW's greatest assets is our community's diversity, with thousands of active members having their own unique backgrounds, identities, and stories. Through this series, we'll educate each other on our own backgrounds by shining a spotlight on these stories and work together to define and analyze the importance of not just having, but effectively living, in an increasingly diverse society. Each session will explore a different facet of what makes each of us who we are — from the foods we consume to the music we listen to — through group activities, mini-show-and-tells, discussions (and maybe some debates), and a ton of storytelling. Expect to be actively involved, either in the chat or preferably with your microphone. Check out some of the sessions below, to get an idea of the structure! More sessions and topics will be added based on learner interests and suggestions! This series will be running parallel to those run by these awesome SHW tutors @Iqra A(https://schoolhouse.world/u/79319&celebrate) and @Simran R(https://schoolhouse.world/u/11162&celebrate). Check out their series to find one that best suits your schedule! See you all there!

Dealer of fun facts. Maker of silly things. Draw-er of people and pets. Writer of rants. Reader of dreadful dilemmas. Address me with your math(s) grievances, and I will try to be of assistance. If I don't know the answer, I will either find it, fake it convincingly, or cry trying. When I’m not working on any of the above, you may find me aggressively touching grass. Here to learn and help out. Good day to you too.

We'll introduce ourselves and talk about our backgrounds and identities. We'll delve into talking about food: our favorite foods (let's be real, no one has just one favorite) and why we love them! Interested volunteers will even have the opportunity to have a live cooking show on Zoom to show off their cooking skills. We'll then talk about the importance of food and how it's shaped by region and location. We'll then end with a small game!

Fashion show time! Prepare to sashay down virtual ramps and catwalks in a fabulous outfit, representing what YOU stand for (Schoolhouse-appropriate, of course)! We'll talk about and showcase some of our favorite pieces of clothing and outfits and their significance — feel free to dress up and go all out for the (Zoom) camera, or just show a sketch or photo if you'd prefer. We'll then discuss the pivotal role of fashion in self-expression, the evolution of fashion norms over time in different parts of the world, and how we think (or want) fashion to continue evolving in the future.

We've all heard about how important school and education are, whether it's from all those boring politicians on TV, our teachers, or our own families. But why are they so important? This week, we'll examine different types of educational and schooling structures and how they can vary by country, region, and even each specific school. We'll talk about our own journeys through the education system, analyze possible problems with our current systems, and consider how we can work together to improve the system for future students.

This week we'll talk about, well, talking! We'll see which languages each of us speaks, and see how many we can come up with as a group. We'll then consider how being able to speak all these different languages have influenced our upbringing, mindset, and way of life. How is this impacted by speaking a "living" language, as opposed to a "dead" one like Greek or Latin? And, on a global scale, how can similarities and differences in language be used to promote societal change, evolution, unification, or division? Man, just how powerful is this language thing?
