Inclusive Classroom Climate-Sense of Belonging
Wednesday, February 21, 2024
11 a.m.–12:30 p.m.
Online via Microsoft Teams
Inclusive classrooms demonstrate a culture and climate of respect, inclusivity, and belonging for students, TAs and for instructors alike. Inclusive and equitable classroom interactions, course design, learning activities, assessments, feedback, and reflections make classrooms inclusive for students when they don’t feel belonged.
In this interactive session, facilitators and attendees will examine how we can be intentional, conscious, and purposeful about creating and contributing to an inclusive classroom. We are hoping to have interactions and open discussion about creating inclusive classrooms for exceptional student experience and inclusive excellence (3rd Century Promise). We will also share some ideas and strategies for creating inclusive classrooms where students feel they belong.
