When: April 5, 2024 at 10:00am
Where: Live via Zoom

Whether teaching online or in-person, faculty should strive for an inclusive and welcoming classroom, honoring diversity and ensuring all students have a voice. Join Laura Quiros, Associate Professor of Social Work and Child Advocacy, for a conversation on how to integrate diverse perspectives into in-person and online teaching to acknowledge the multitude of identities in our classrooms. Teaching strategies and technologies to foster an inclusive, trauma-informed learning environment will be shared.

Future Sessions

As more details emerge, this section will be updated. Do you know a faculty or staff colleague making unique contributions to teaching and learning at the university who may be interested in sharing their work in a live, 30-minute interview format? Recommend colleagues or yourself to join a future session of Fridays with ITDS.
