in our increasingly diverse classrooms, it is important to support the development of every student and to structure equal opportunities for learning for all who enroll. \u00a0unfortunately, our teaching practices may fall short in their attempts to do this, particularly for underrepresented or more marginal student groups who may face difficulties finding belonging. \u00a0based on existing research and the experiences of vanderbilt faculty, this workshop will discuss common challenges to inclusive teaching and strategies for creating more dynamic, participatory, and diverse learning environments. \u00a0particular attention will be given to discussion leading and leveraging student differences for more engaged and productive learning. lunch provided.<\/strong><\/p>\n

the flipped classroom has captured the attention of the higher education community with its promise to help students prepare before class for more engaged, critical learning in class. the ideas behind the flipped classroom are relatively simple; the challenge is in putting the key principles into practice. in this interactive workshop, participants will explore the key ideas behind the flipped classroom identified in a brief pre-workshop reading and will draft plans for their own flipped class session. participants will come away with initial plans for a flipped class session, identification of next steps to take, and resources for further exploration.\u00a0lunch provided.<\/strong><\/p>\n
