In classrooms where students and instructors come from different cultural backgrounds, challenges can arise in creating an inclusive and effective learning environment. 

This interactive workshop is aimed at international graduate students who are preparing to serve as teaching assistants or seeking to enhance their skills in teaching diverse, multicultural audiences. Participants will engage with various tools and strategies aimed at incorporating cultural diversity into their teaching. The workshop will cover activities, syllabus and section planning techniques, assignment and grading strategies, and intercultural communication skills—all aimed at fostering an inclusive learning environment.
