Teaching Equitably Online Design Series
Teaching Equitably Online Design Series (July, 2020)
Facilitated by CEILS Interim Director Rachel Kennison, Senior Associate Director Shanna Shaked, Assistant Director Katie Dixie and Dr. Jennifer Casey (Lecturer in Chemistry), Kiana Foxx (PhD Candidate in Higher Education and Organizational Change), Benjamin Ha (PhD Candidate in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology), and Samantha Theresa Messah (PhD Candidate in Chemistry & Biochemistry).
Description: Using an equitable approach to teaching benefits all students. In this series, you will work with colleagues, guided by CEILS experts, to discuss and redesign your syllabus, assessments, and approaches for effective student engagement. The focus will be on fostering an inclusive and equitable remote learning experience to mitigate the likely worsening equity gaps in higher education. The principles we are using are applicable to when we go back to in-person teaching, so the time you spend on these best practices will not be wasted! You are welcome to attend any or all of the workshops.
Part I: Syllabus Design
Description: In this workshop, you will use structured syllabus review tools to help you assess and adjust your syllabus to be more inclusive and equitable. Don’t forget to bring a syllabus with you!
