Description

How can educators ensure that activities centered on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the classroom are meaningful for students? It's important that these activities don't just check a box. Students should be provided meaningful experiences to help them develop into thoughtful citizens. This webinar highlights Madisonville Community College’s approach to DEI in the classroom, blended with a Student Learning Outcome (SLO) process and action research. Through this process, instructors from a wide range of disciplines (i.e., general education, technical programs, health programs) have incorporated DEI into the classroom in meaningful and measurable ways.

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Design a faculty-driven SLO assessment process for DEI in the classroom. 
  • Build DEI activities that can be adapted and utilized in various disciplines.
  • Create a plan for achieving faculty and institutional buy in. 

Certificate and CEUs for Webinars

Learners will have the option to earn a certificate of attendance or a certificate with Continuing Education Units (CEU) upon completion of the webinar. To earn a certificate with CEUs, the learner must successfully pass the learning assessment with a score of 80% or higher. All learners must complete the post-event evaluation to earn credentials. 

The duration of this webinar is one hour, which is equal to 0.1 Continuing Education Units (CEUs).
