In Our Shoes – Looking at Your Online Course from a Diversity Inclusion Lens.


About This Event

This session will help us to extend our continuing discussion as a resource for higher-education faculty that centers equity, diversity and inclusion in our curriculum. We also anticipate that together we can collaborate to begin to address promising practices in the anti-racism work of educators. The resources developed as part of this project can help global educators frame their practice in an environment of care, equity and inclusion: in both virtual and in-person classrooms. 

Here are some ideas we will be exploring with our panelists

  1. Creating equitable and caring online spaces.
  2. Exploring ways to unpack and address anti-racism in online spaces.

Why Should I Attend?

This is a time to reflect and share together as practitioners about what is working online, and what is not. It’s a chance to learn from our panelists about practical ways that can help with online learning and teaching. Limited spaces available.
