The Fundamentals of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the Classroom (In-person)
Thursday, November 10, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm EST
Description
The purpose of this workshop is to introduce participants to foundational concepts and vocabulary of EDI work, make connections to why these matter in teaching and learning contexts, and identify actionable strategies to foster more inclusive classrooms.
Participants will engage in a variety of interactive, self-reflexive and informative activities designed to build greater awareness of the intersections of identity, power, privilege and bias, and how these relations manifest in (and beyond) the classroom.
This workshop will be relevant for teaching assistants across disciplines who are interested in developing a better understanding of the roots of educational inequity and a capacity to work towards anti-oppressive teaching practices.
