Abstract

It is not uncommon for our journals to feature sections on Implications for Human Resource Development (HRD) research and theory to practice. It is time that we center our focus more on HRD education, specifically diversity and social justice education where students learn to be morally just human beings and to practice social justice goals in their work. Hite andMcDonald (2010) brought a Special Issue on diversity education and highlighted deficiencies in higher education curriculum that could provide students with the skills and competencies needed to respond to diversity and inclusion issues in the real world of work. Similarly, Collins (2017) challenged us to think how the horizons of undergraduate students might be expanded by engaging in diversity and inclusion coursework that exposes them to the work of HRD practitioners. This premier edition of Insights for HRD Education will explore HRD diversity and social justice education beyond coursework and the classroom and offer a unique perspective of how one HRD educator is equipping students with practical skills to become more responsive to social justice as a foundation for social change.

多元化声音会议：课堂之外的多元化和社会正义教育模式

我们的期刊以人力资源开发研究和理论与实践的影响为特色，这并不罕见。现在是我们将重点更多地放在人力资源开发教育上的时候了，特别是多样性和社会正义教育，让学生学会在道德上成为公正的人，并在工作中实践社会正义目标。Hite和McDonald（2010）推出了一期关于多样性教育的特刊，并强调了高等教育课程中的不足之处，这些课程可以为学生提供应对现实工作世界中的多样性和包容性问题所需的技能和能力。同样，Collins（2017）要求我们思考如何通过参与多样性和包容性课程来扩大本科生的视野，让他们接触到人力资源开发从业者的工作。本期《人力资源开发教育洞察》将探讨课程和课堂之外的人力资源开发多样性和社会正义教育，并提供一个独特的视角，说明一位人力资源开发教育家如何为学生提供实用技能，使他们更能响应社会正义，以此作为社会变革的基础。
