This lightly facilitated asynchronous course is for anyone who teaches at UBC and who is looking for an introduction to inclusive teaching practices.
You will be introduced to the literature underpinning inclusive teaching and why inclusive practices in the classroom are important. You will explore diversity amongst UBC’s student population and have an opportunity to reflect on and share inclusive teaching practices.
Cohorts will run for approximately two weeks, culminating in a virtual discussion shortly after. This Inclusive Teaching Exchange is optional, but we encourage you to join us as you share your insights and explore your questions in a collaborative space.
