SUMMARY:Elyana Matos and Juan Carlos López on We Matter: Together We Can Resist Imposterization
DESCRIPTION:Elyana Matos and Juan Carlos López on We Matter: Together We Can Resist Imposterization\nDate: Friday\, October 24th\, 2025 \nTime: 2:00-3:00pm (AT) / 1:00-2:00pm (ET) / 10:00-11:00am (PT) \nRegistration link \nSoTL Speaker Session Description: \nIn this session\, we will be framing our experiences navigating academic spaces by articulating how the intersectionalities of our identities have shaped our academic careers as migrant scholars. We will argue that instead of placing the onus on academics belonging to equity deserving groups for ‘feeling’ as imposters\, many of the common practices in academia are the root cause of these feelings. Rather than having imposter syndrome\, these academics are being made imposters…have been imposterized. We will then describe how these feelings may also be experienced by learners with marginalized identities as they navigate university and\, later\, professional life.   \nWe will discuss how to dismantle the barriers that keep marginalized people from fully participating in academic spaces. We advocate for recognizing such barriers by sharing our experiences – among ourselves as well as with others – and naming them for what they are. We propose the creation of focused groups and communities of practice\, as well as inviting allies in the process of empowering marginalized learners and scholars and fostering their rightful sense of more than belonging\, actually really mattering in academic spaces.   \nSoTL Speakers’ Bios: \nElyana Matos (Acadia University\, Wolfville\, Canada) is an experienced adult educator with over 15 years specializing in teaching Spanish and English as additional languages in different settings. Over the years\, Elyana has worked in non-academic spaces assisting minoritized populations in gaining new language and job readiness skills\, and in academic spaces as a language instructor. Elyana is driven by a commitment to creating equitable and inclusive learning environments\, where all learners feel empowered to succeed. To spark engagement in the learning process\, Elyana recognizes\, sustains\, and values learners’ unique interests and identities. Using active learning techniques\, she creates opportunities for students to connect what they are learning with their personal interests\, to encourage student autonomy. Elyana believes that teaching is a political act\, and that the language classroom is an ideal space for students to develop intercultural competencies\, and to gain understanding of the relationships between language and power.  \nJuan Carlos López (Maple League of Universities\, Wolfville\, Canada) is a soil microbial ecologist who has worked and trained in Europe\, and North and South America. Over the years\, working in collaboration with students and colleagues\, Juan Carlos has addressed aspects of education that deal with pedagogy\, inclusion and student success. In 2023\, Juan Carlos became the inaugural Director of the Virtual Maple League Teaching and Learning Centre developing new programming and continuing with existing initiatives to showcase pedagogical practices and strategies\, always infused with social justice practices in higher education. Juan Carlos has worked in advancing EDIAR principles in the way our academic systems function and was appointed as the inaugural Associate Dean of Equity Diversity and Inclusion for the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science at Acadia University in 2024.

The current iteration brings together educational/curriculum/faculty/instructional developers and instructors from across Canada and the US to explore and reflect on narratives of education in films\, television\, short stories\, and novels. These works may speak to us as learners\, educators\, developers\, researchers\, artists\, and/or simply as humans.  \nFor Fall 2025\, the Fictional Classrooms community will be discussing:  \n\nCommunity S05E02 “Introduction to Teaching” (TV show) – September 22 \n\n\n“The Unknowable Pleasures” by Susie Yang (short story) – October 27 \n\n\nLegally Blonde (dir. Robert Luketic) (film) – November 24 \n\n\nAnd Then She Fell by Alicia Elliott (novel) – December 15 \n\nYou can read about all these selections (and previous selections) in our what to read/watch list.  \nTo join the Fictional Classrooms Community for Summer 2025:  \nPlease sign up as follows:   \n\nVisit https://groups.google.com/search?q=FictionalClassroomsED (you may be prompted to log in to your Google account)\nOn the right-hand side\, click the small “Join” icon (next to the star) and ask to join group.\nMatthew and Robin will approve your request within 2 working days\, and you will then have access to the group\, including their shared Google Folder and Calendar. \n\nNote from Matthew and Robin: We approach the Fictional Classrooms program with a “read-what-you-can” mentality. We understand that we can get busy and may not finish readings each month\, but we encourage you to attend each session regardless of how much you have been able to engage with the text or film so we can still have fruitful conversations and build community.
