ITW: Introduction to Antiracist Pedagogy

Event Description 

ITW: In this introductory workshop, participants will become familiar with concepts such as structural racism, anti-racism, and their influence on the learning environment and institutional power structures. After defining these terms and discussing their lived impacts, we will explore how racism manifests in each of our own disciplines and academic norms. Participants will be guided through a reflection of their own positionality as instructors which will prepare us to delve into more concrete aspects of course design, policy implementation, and assessment/grading practices in the ATW: “Advanced Antiracist Pedagogy” which will be held the following Wednesday, October 30th 5:30 - 7:00 pm. If you have questions or plan to attend the ATW without attending the ITW, please email allison.chu@yale.edu or audrey.holt@yale.edu. — Event Details: https://yaleconnect.yale.edu/rsvp?id=2273587
