Beyond Conversation: An Action-Centered Approach to Diversity and Inclusion in the Classroom
August 29 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Beyond Conversation: An Action-Centered Approach to Diversity and Inclusion in the Classroom
How can educators ensure that activities centered on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the classroom are meaningful for students? It’s important that these activities don’t just check a box. Students should be provided meaningful experiences to help them develop into thoughtful citizens. This webinar highlights Madisonville Community College’s approach to DEI in the classroom, blended with a Student Learning Outcome (SLO) process and action research. Through this process, instructors from a wide range of disciplines (i.e., general education, technical programs, health programs) have incorporated DEI into the classroom in meaningful and measurable ways.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Design a faculty-driven SLO assessment process for DEI in the classroom.
- Build DEI activities that can be adapted and utilized in various disciplines.
- Create a plan for achieving faculty and institutional buy in.
