Description:

Theoretical Thursdays is a set of 3 one-hour sessions in which a cohort of Northwestern instructors will convene to discuss identity-affirming pedagogical frameworks that cultivate a sense of belonging and inclusion in learning environments. The discussion will be 45-minutes with additional 15 minutes reserved for slowing down (i.e., personal reflections, catching breath, centering before next meeting). Participants will engage in dialogue with fellow attendees on selected readings as well as share their personal thoughts, questions, insights, and experiences with engaging in DEI work in higher education. Veronica Womack, the Center’s Associate Director of Inclusive Learning, will facilitate these engaged discussions on inclusive teaching pedagogies.
