Exploring and expanding the equity, diversity & inclusion (EDI) in the work of TAs at UBC is an important session that supports your TA skills both in and outside of the classroom. Over our time together, we will cover three specific areas where intentional efforts to attend to EDI will (hopefully) enhance: a) students’ sense of belonging; b) their engagement with content and assessment; and c) the skills needed to work across differences. We’ll accomplish this through a variety of discussions and activities, with resources you can take with you afterwards.

Facilitators:

  • Rachael Sullivan (Equity and Inclusion Office)
  • Emily Clare (Equity and Inclusion Office)

The Blackboard Collaborate video conferencing link will be provided prior to the event to all who are confirmed to participate. Please ensure you have a quiet space and a computer with a webcam and earphones/buds.
