Thesis Abstract

In today’s swiftly evolving educational sphere, inclusivity emerges as a cornerstone, ensuring that each child stepping into the classroom is poised for success. Smart Cookie, an innovative educational brand tailored for elementary students, is dedicated to crafting inclusive materials accessible to all learners. Through extensive research and dialogues with educators, I identified a notable gap in the quality and content of current educational materials. Hindered by limited classroom budgets, teachers often resort to outdated resources, perpetuating a cycle of convenience over relevance. Yet, the reality dictates that classroom materials and learning aids necessitate regular updates to align with our ever-changing world. At Smart Cookie, inclusivity serves as the bedrock for all material development, ensuring every student finds comfort and recognition within their learning environment. This inclusivity extends beyond mere representation in characters to encompass the ethos of lessons and dialogues fostered. By showcasing a diverse range of characters and perspectives, Smart Cookie endeavors to instill a sense of belonging and empowerment in every child, recognizing that true learning flourishes in environments where students can see themselves reflected in the materials they engage with. Utilizing a diverse range of visual narratives, Smart Cookie curates a comprehensive collection of materials designed to stimulate intellectual growth and foster enjoyable, uplifting learning atmospheres.
