Heteronormative culture and curriculum have traditionally prevailed within the college classroom (MacGillivray, 2000). Many LGBTQQIA+ students still find challenges regarding acceptance and integration which may impact their learning experiences (Nodin 2022). Addressing heteronormative curriculum and pedagogy includes discussing the relevance of LGBTQQIA+ inclusivity, visibility, and histories. For schools to become safe and welcoming environments for members of the LGBTQ+ community, and for the negative consequences of heterosexism to diminish for all, homophobia, heterosexism, heteronormativity, and heterosexual privilege must all be explicitly addressed and interrogated in students' learning (Nunn & Bolt, 2015). One of the ways to do this and ameliorate the adverse effects of heteronormativity is through the creation of autobiographical dramas that construct meaning from LGBTQQIA+ experiences in an attempt to expand ways of knowing, seeing, being, and teaching.
