Fostering equity-centered classroom environments (IN PERSON)
By participating in this interactive session, teaching assistants will cultivate a greater understanding of anti-oppression, anti-racism and how these systems operate within learning institutions. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on their relationships with positionality and power and how they may leverage these in service of removing barriers to equitable classroom participation. Teaching Assistants will also practice bias interventions and engage in action planning to make their remote classroom environments and the campus, more inclusive.
NOTE: Only first-time TAs will be paid for participating in this training session and are eligible for a maximum of 3 hours of paid training.
