Promising Practices: Learning from Our Community
On April 18, 2018, the Searle Center for Advancing Learning and Teaching will host a half-day event for faculty, graduate students, postdocs, and staff who teach to explore issues of inclusion, equity and diversity in learning and teaching; and engage in discussion around promising practices for inclusive teaching and learning at our community.
Dr. Frank Tuitt (Senior Advisor to the Chancellor and Provost for Diversity and Inclusion, & Professor of Higher Education, University of Denver) will offer a plenary, “Making Excellence Inclusive in Challenging Times: Diversity Considerations for the Classroom” as well as an interactive session, “Realizing a More Inclusive Pedagogy: Race, Identity, and Engagement in Diverse College Classrooms.” Additionally, we will have several concurrent workshops/roundtables lead by Northwestern faculty, lunch, and a remarks featuring Provost Holloway.
