The Inclusive Teaching Network (ITN) is a group of instructors who are interested in the ongoing work of building inclusion into their teaching. ITN aims to create a supportive community for teachers to share resources and troubleshoot issues arising.
On March 6, the ITN will facilitate a collaborative teaching circle on the topic of “Teaching and Activism.”
Potential questions include:
What are the ethics of discussing politics in the classroom?
How can instructors navigate personal “openness”?
Is the classroom an activist space?
What might be the goals of an activist pedagogy?
What is the relationship between activism and accessibility?
How do institutions of higher education facilitate or create barriers to pursuing activism in the classroom?
Please join us!
Light refreshments will be provided.
