The UR Faculty Learning Community (FLC) on Inclusive Pedagogy in STEM is hosting a professional development opportunity to expand the discussion on Inclusive Pedagogy. We have invited Dr. Bryan Dewsbury from the University of Rhode Island (co-sponsored with the Department of Biology) to provide a workshop on enhancing the learning experience for all students. In this workshop we will discuss ways in which our teaching practice can be structured to enrich and enhance the learning experience for both ourselves and our students. We will discuss a pedagogy that is structured on building and understanding the teacher-student relationship, and leveraging that trust to create a community of learners. Location TBA.
CoP note: The FLC on Inclusive Pedagogy in STEM notes that Dr. Dewsbury’s workshop and research focus on students in STEM disciplines, but believes that this workshop will resonate with other disciplines as well. The event is open to UR faculty, staff and students.
