Introduction<\/h3>\nYou are a part of a global effort to increase access to education and empower students through \"open pedagogy.\"\u00a0 Open pedagogy is a \"free access\" educational practice that places you - the student - at the center of your own learning process in a more engaging, collaborative learning environment.\u00a0 The ultimate purpose of this effort is to achieve greater social justice in our community in which the work can be freely shared with the broader community.\u00a0 This is a renewable assignment that is designed to enable you to become an agent of change in your community through the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).\u00a0 For this work, you will integrate the disciplines of Business and English\/Reading to achieve SDG #5: Gender Equality.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong>\n

Learning Objectives<\/h3>\nThis interdisciplinary assignment has two steps. The first part will require you to develop a portfolio using Facebook, Instagram, or any other form of social media.

Instructions<\/h3>\nThis interdisciplinary assignment has two steps. The first part will require you to develop a portfolio using Facebook, Instagram, or any other form of social media. This portfolio will be created using imagery (videos, photographs, television or youtube clips) to develop an essay showing how education has enabled or facilitated the empowerment of women. Be as creative as you can be in telling this story and displaying your imagery. It is essential that the portfolio has the great potential to be impactful on those who view it.
