6 Thursdays, Apr. 24, May 1, 8, 15, 22 & 29, 12:30-2:00 p.m. via Zoom
In this book club, we’ll read the book titled “Inclusive Teaching: Strategies for Promoting Equity in the College Classroom” by Kelly Hogan and Viji Sathy. The authors offer tips and advice on how to ensure that all students feel welcome and included. They start by explaining why paying explicit attention to structure improves inclusiveness in course design and interactions with and among students. “Inclusive Teaching” then presents practical methods for including more voices in various situations, such as giving instructions for group work and class activities, conducting office hours, communicating with students, and more. The authors conclude by inviting the reader to reflect on what evidence to include in a teaching dossier that showcases inclusive practices.
The members of the book club will meet once a week for 1.5 hours over 6 weeks. During each session, we will discuss and reflect on the insights we’ve gained from the book and explore how we can implement these ideas in our classrooms. Each week, we will cover one chapter of the book.
12 PD Hours and $350 stipend for eligible faculty who attend at least 5 of the 6 sessions and who choose to complete a final deliverable assignment.
