This workshop introduces several principles of inclusivity and offers practical advice for fostering an inclusive classroom environment through your teaching in both face-to-face and remote learning contexts. Through discussion and workshop exercises, you will learn how promoting and practicing inclusivity can improve learning outcomes and your relationship with your students, and how the two are closely related. This workshop also addresses ways to effectively articulate your philosophy of inclusion in teaching on job applications and in interviews.

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Identify attitudes and issues related to inclusive teaching.
  • Identify reasons for considering inclusivity in your course planning and teaching.
  • Implement inclusivity in your teaching in accordance with best practices.
