Culturally Responsive and Inclusive Teaching

Panel Discussion/Presentation

Building on previous events in this series, this panel will explore how to bring diversity, equity, and inclusion theories and practices into our classroom teaching, both in face-to-face and online instructional settings. Drawing on their expertise in a range of teaching and learning contexts, panelists will share principles for culturally responsive and inclusive instruction. Together, we will reflect on why this work has always mattered – and why it especially matters now.

This event is part of the series "Intersections on Inclusion: Critical Conversations about the Academy." Cosponsored by the Center for Intersectional Gender Studies & Research and the USU Libraries, the series explores questions about knowledge, research, teaching, and the academy through an intersectional lens.
