Teaching & Learning Discussion: Fostering Belonging in the Classroom

Event Description 

As instructors, we work to foster a classroom environment that ensures every student feels a sense of belonging. In this Teaching and Learning Discussion, which will be hosted on zoom, we will focus on what types of pedagogical techniques can contribute to student belonging in a classroom. Holly Rushmeier, John C. Malone Professor of Computer Science, and Julia Leonard, Assistant Professor of Psychology, will kick off the discussion with their own thoughts and practices and then invite others to contribute to the conversation. Participants are encouraged to come ready to contribute their own questions, challenges, and variations on practices related to belonging. We are committed to hosting inclusive and accessible events that allow all participants to fully engage. Please contact us faculty.teaching@yale.edu if there are ways we can support accommodations or for questions about inclusion.. . — Event Details: https://yaleconnect.yale.edu/rsvp?id=1661613
