About this course

Inclusive teaching is an issue that has received increased attention on college campuses around the country and around the world. Understanding how course climate impacts students and their learning  is increasingly important to faculty and administrators alike across a wide range of educational contexts.. 

Yet creating equitable learning environments that support all students’ learning can be a challenge, especially when one considers that course climate consists of a variety of factors (e.g., student-student interactions, faculty-student interactions, course content and policies). 

Despite the fact that ​creating an inclusive teaching environment is beneficial for  students' learning, issues around inclusion and dis-inclusion are rarely discussed in practical terms. 

Participants in this course will consider multiple facets of inclusive teaching, including the creation of an equitable course climate, the design and implementation of accessible and inclusive classroom practices and assessments, and the selection and implementation of diverse course content. 

Participants will engage with key concepts in inclusive teaching and learn from experts in higher education who share their important research on student development, microaggressions, stereotype threat, and Universal Design for Learning. 

Participants will be equipped with tools to help them develop inclusive courses that support all learners.
