Details

Do you want to learn how to teach equitably?  "Equitable Teaching in the Social Sciences & Humanities" is a seminar series for postdocs and graduate students designed to improve higher education by infusing the spirit of rigor and research into the classroom while ensuring that every student is welcomed, respected, supported, and valued such that they can fully participate in and have equal access to the learning process. In this seminar you will develop knowledge, skills, and community in teaching. Specifically, we will work together to learn the core themes of equitable teaching (active learning, Universal Design for Learning, and antiracist pedagogy) in theory and in practice so you can make teaching decisions informed by student learning. 

We will apply equitable teaching to the development of a “teachable tidbit,” or short teaching demo, for a course appropriate to your discipline. We will also create and/or revise a teaching statement that you may ultimately use for fellowship and job applications if you wish.
