Ohio State, through the Institute for Teaching and Learning, is a CIRTL Network member. CIRTL courses, events, and workshops are open to graduate students and post-docs.
Learn about inclusive teaching approaches that build upon inclusive design frameworks, case studies, and educational research in this one-session workshop. As an introduction to inclusive teaching techniques, Professors Kelly Hogan and Viji Sathy of the University of North Carolina will ask participants to reflect on inequities and diversity in their classrooms through interactive activities. After providing a framework for inclusive design and their own research results, Hogan and Sathy will lead participants through active learning exercises and case studies that explore inclusive techniques. Drawing upon their own teaching experiences and educational research, they will model and discuss approaches that can be readily implemented with any discipline or class size to help all students achieve to their potentials.
By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:
- Describe and demonstrate techniques that add structure and equity to a classroom
- Explain the inequities that arise in an unstructured learning environment and brainstorm ways to reduce the inequities in your own courses
