Building Inclusive Classrooms: Using Collegial Inquiry to Welcome Students
The Office of Diversity and Inclusion presents a workshop for faculty to foster a classroom environment where all students feel welcome and can succeed. Participants will examine identities of potential students and begin to examine our own bias in order to reduce barriers to student access. Participants will have the opportunity to explore and practice small shifts that help students feel welcome in the classroom.
This virtual session will provide the opportunity to collaborate with others in the session and develop a plan using the Collegial Inquiry Cycle (Cunningham, 2011) for planning, implementation, and analysis and reflection, with strategies that can contribute to a positive learning climate in higher education.
Dates/times: Dec. 12 from 2 to 4 p.m. (virtual)
