This virtual (Zoom) workshop focuses on practices that develop caring relationships, communicate high expectations, and create inclusive environments virtually. Throughout this workshop, participants will examine how good instructional strategies promote equity in STEM for diverse learners. Participants will leave the workshop with high impact instructional strategies that can be implemented immediately in their work.
Facilitated by Louise Wilmes, Caitlin Everett, Mehreen Krueger, Charissa Jones, and Dan Prince

*Ally - Someone who makes the commitment and effort to recognize their privilege (based on gender, class, race, sexual identity, etc.) and work in solidarity with oppressed groups in the struggle for justice. Allies understand that it is in their own interest to end all forms of oppression, even those from which they may benefit in concrete ways. (Center for the Study of Social Policy)
