SUMMARY:Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusive Teaching in the Community College Setting
DESCRIPTION:Community colleges are truly diverse settings\, attracting individuals from all different walks of life with a common interest in advancing their education. If you are interested in exploring a career at a community college\, then understanding the diversity of their student populations is crucial. This panel consisting of faculty and administrators from various community colleges will share insights on student diversity. We will also explore the types of inclusive teaching strategies that best support community college students and help to create more equitable classrooms. \nThis event is supported by and organized through NSF INCLUDES Aspire grant by the Regional Initiative group. \nRegistration Closed \nEvent Schedule\nThis online event takes place on Thursday\, December 1 at 2-3:30PM AT / 1-2:30PM ET / 12-1:30PM CT / 11AM-12:30PM MT / 10-11:30AM PT. This event is part of the three-part event series “Exploring Careers in Teaching at a Community College\,” organized through CIRTL and APLU’s NSF INCLUDES Aspire grant. \nRegistration\nThis event is open to the public. You must register in order to attend; you will receive Zoom information upon registration. \nAccessibility\nWe strive to be inclusive of anyone interested in participating in our activities. If you have specific accessibility needs\, please contact us at info@cirtl.net in advance so that we may make the necessary accommodations. \n\nLearning Outcomes\nAssociate: Learning Community\n\nRecognize the value of and participate in local professionally-focused learning communities associated with teaching and learning.\n\nAssociate: Learning-through-Diversity\n\nDescribe the scope of diversity in learning environments\, of both students and instructor. (*Including but not limited to backgrounds\, race\, gender\, ability\, socio-economic status\, ethnicity\, gender preference\, and cognitive skills)\nDescribe the impact of diversity on student learning\, in particular how diversity can enhance learning\, and how inequities can negatively impact learning if not addressed.\nDescribe how an instructor’s beliefs and biases can influence student learning.\nDescribe and recognize the value of drawing on diversity in the development of teaching plans (including content\, teaching practices and assessments) to foster learning.\nDescribe several learning-through-diversity (LtD) techniques and strategies.

SUMMARY:Ethical Dilemmas in Inclusive Teaching: Difficult Dynamics in the Lab
DESCRIPTION:Cases that showcase inclusive teaching dilemmas at the university offer the opportunity for many to develop and test their own ways of understanding how they respond to dilemmas in their teaching. In this interactive workshop\, come together with fellow future faculty to discuss some problematic group dynamics and cultural differences playing out in a lab course at a large research university. Participants will brainstorm possible solutions and challenge assumptions about potential paths forward that they can bring to their current and future institutions. All are welcome. \nRegistration Closed \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session online workshop meets on Monday\, December 5 at 1:30-3:30PM AT / 12:30-2:30PM ET / 11:30AM-1:30PM CT / 10:30AM-12:30PM MT / 9:30-11:30AM PT. \nRegistration & Enrollment\nThis workshop has a cap of 25 students. Registration is open from Monday\, August 29 until Friday\, September 9. Registration will be processed on a first-come\, first-served basis and registrants from CIRTL member institutions or alumni of CIRTL member institutions will receive priority. Once registration closes\, all registrants will be notified of their enrollment status. \nAccessibility\nWe strive to be inclusive of anyone interested in participating in our activities. If you have specific accessibility needs\, please contact us at info@cirtl.net in advance so that we may make the necessary accommodations. \n\nLearning Outcomes\nAssociate: Learning Community\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of learning communities\, and how they impact student learning.\nDescribe several techniques and issues of establishing LCs comprising a diverse group of learners.\nRecognize the value of and participate in local professionally-focused learning communities associated with teaching and learning.\n\nAssociate: Learning-through-Diversity\n\nDescribe the scope of diversity in learning environments\, of both students and instructor. (*Including but not limited to backgrounds\, race\, gender\, ability\, socio-economic status\, ethnicity\, gender preference\, and cognitive skills)\nDescribe the impact of diversity on student learning\, in particular how diversity can enhance learning\, and how inequities can negatively impact learning if not addressed.\nDescribe how an instructor’s beliefs and biases can influence student learning.\n\nPractitioner: Learning Community\n\nIntegrate one or more LC strategies into a teaching plan so as to accomplish learning goals and learning-through-diversity.\nContribute to local professionally-focused learning communities associated with teaching and learning.\n\nPractitioner: Learning-through-Diversity\n\nExamine and describe own beliefs and biases\, including how they may influence their students’ learning.\nDetermine the diverse backgrounds among a group of students\, and consider the opportunities and challenges of the findings on each student’s learning.

SUMMARY:Postdoc Teaching Practicum
DESCRIPTION:Work with an experienced instructor in your discipline to enhance your understanding and experience of teaching a university course in this semester-long mentorship program designed for postdoctoral fellows. In this practicum\, postdocs will observe mentors in their teaching\, teach guest lectures and receive feedback on your teaching\, discuss approaches to teaching with your mentors\, and engage in group discussions of teaching with other postdocs from your cohort. The cohort will meet every three weeks for 2-hour workshops around key topics in teaching development; this may include lesson planning\, teaching portfolios\, equity\, diversity\, & inclusion\, and teaching-as-research. By participating in this practicum\, you will learn how to: \n\nCreate a framework for how a typical university course operates\nArticulate how teaching and learning theories intersect with the practical requirements of a university course\nDesign university lessons which incorporate learner-centered lesson planning basics\, demonstrating the alignment of learning objectives\, learning activities and assessment techniques\nDevelop and refine a teaching portfolio using the evidence of teaching effectiveness gathered throughout the internship\n\nRegistration Closed \nPracticum Schedule\nThis five-session semester-long practicum meets at 2-4PM AT / 1-3PM ET / 12-2PM CT / 11AM-1PM MT / 10AM-12PM PT on Thursday\, September 15\, October 6\, October 27\, November 17\, and December 8. \nWorkload\nParticipants will need to do most of their work outside of sessions: teaching observations\, guest lecturing\, etc. \nRegistration and Enrollment\nRegistration is open Monday\, August 15 through Monday\, September 12 or until capacity is reached. Registrants will be directed to an application form\, and practicum instructors will determine course acceptance after reviewing applications. Participants must have CIRTL Associate status in order to take this practicum. Note for CIRTL registrants: the application form asks for your UBC Employee Number; you can type “N/A” in this field to complete the form. \nAccessibility\nWe strive to be inclusive of anyone interested in participating in our activities. If you have specific accessibility needs\, please contact us at info@cirtl.net in advance so that we may make the necessary accommodations. \n\nLearning Outcomes\nPractitioner: Learning Community\n\nIntegrate one or more LC strategies into a teaching plan so as to accomplish learning goals and learning-through-diversity.\nImplement one or more LC strategies for students in a learning experience.\nContribute to local professionally-focused learning communities associated with teaching and learning.\n\nPractitioner: Teaching-as-Research\n\nShow the integration of Evidence-Based Teaching\, Learning Communities and Learning-through-Diversity to accomplish learning goals.\nDescribe how to access the literature and existing knowledge about teaching and learning issues\, in a discipline or more broadly.
