SUMMARY:Moving Beyond the Gender Binary in STEM Courses
DESCRIPTION:Societal gender norms affect how people have traditionally been grouped and named in many aspects of our lives. These norms have been applied implicitly or explicitly to the design of problem banks\, examples used in textbooks and other educational materials. In this workshop\, we explore strategies for updating assignments and other course content to be more gender inclusive. We also show that this intentional approach can be used in other situations to the benefit of your students’ well-being\, learning and persistence in STEM. As part of our discussion\, we will share examples of gender inclusive practices\, including tips for responding to student questions and comments about gendered course materials. \nNote: This is an in-person workshop. There will be an online version on the same topic on Wednesday\, April 5 3:00-4:30pm. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Fostering an Inclusive Classroom Climate
DESCRIPTION:While the classroom can be a space for open\, respectful dialogue\, it can also feel isolating or even hostile for student learners. What can an instructor do to promote a space for positive\, fruitful collaboration? What does it take to create a truly inclusive classroom climate? In this workshop\, participants will discuss a series of interconnected factors that shape classroom climate. Participants will also have the opportunity to consider ways to repair a fractured classroom climate. Finally\, we will examine strategies for developing a classroom culture in which students feel heard\, welcomed\, and valued. \nFor questions about this Humanities\, Arts\, Social Sciences workshop*\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory\, Associate Director for Faculty Programs. Workshop will take place in Rm. 103 in Lopata Hall. \n*Attendees must plan to participate in the entire workshop in order to get credit for attendance towards the Professional Development in Teaching Program.

SUMMARY:Writing a Teaching Statement for Promotion at WashU
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop open to faculty at WashU\, we will discuss the teaching philosophy statement component needed as part of documents prepared for promotion at the university. We will examine conventions associated with such statements\, describe concrete aspects of your teaching to address in your statement\, and offer a space to brainstorm and reflect on your teaching as you prepare to compose or revise your statement of teaching philosophy. Note that this session is longer than most of our faculty offerings in an attempt to give you space during the workshop to begin/continue to draft ideas for your statement. While this workshop will be in person\, Zoom accommodations are available for those who need them.\n\n\n\nIf you have questions about this workshop or would like to discuss virtual accommodations\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory. \nRegistration\nRegistration has now closed.

SUMMARY:Using Polls to Jumpstart Student Engagement and Collaboration
DESCRIPTION:Polling is an instructional strategy that faculty can use to anonymously or semi-anonymously engage students in answering questions from background knowledge to personal opinions or experiences with course content and progress. The anonymity of these tools allows students to reflect on their own understanding\, feel more comfortable participating in discussion\, and answer honestly. Furthermore\, polls serve as a formative assessment to help faculty gauge where students are in their learning at different points during a course and respond more directly to student needs. This workshop will introduce different types of polling questions as well as low-tech and high-tech approaches to run polls in your classes. Participants will leave with polling questions that they can implement in their class.\n\n\n\nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Sally Wu. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Writing a Diversity and Inclusion Statement for the Job Market
DESCRIPTION:Increasingly\, candidates for academic positions are asked to address their commitment to diversity\, inclusion\, and equity (DEI) in the classroom in their job market materials. In this workshop\, we will explore how to communicate this commitment effectively. Participants will examine the purpose of a DEI statement\, identify generic expectations and conventions of the statement\, learn about how this statement can complement other job market documents\, and discuss strategies for demonstrating a clearly defined commitment to diversity\, inclusion\, and equity. \nWorkshops in this series are only open to postdocs and graduate students in their third year and beyond. If you need the workshop sooner than that\, for example because you are in a terminal 3-year program\, please email Dr. Gregory to register. \nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory. \nRegister Here\nRegistration has now closed.

SUMMARY:Navigating Difficult Conversations in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:While the classroom can be a space for open\, respectful discussion of sensitive or controversial topics\, facilitating such discussions can be a challenging prospect.

Participants will engage with strategies for laying the groundwork necessary for having difficult conversations\, learn approaches for responding to unexpectedly tense moments\, and practice applying the strategies we discuss to common instructional situations. \nThis workshop will be in person on the Danforth Campus. If you need medical or other accommodations to participate virtually\, please let Dr. Gregory know. \nNote: This workshop was formerly entitled Facilitating Challenging Conversations. \nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory. \nRegister Here\nPre-registration is now closed.
