    What are Teaching Talks?
    Join us for an hour of your day to connect with your colleagues. These sessions serve as a springboard for discussions around a topic related to teaching and learning but really give you the chance to share the success and challenges you are facing in our new teaching reality. Each session has a topical theme but are shaped by the participants’ discussion, needs, and interests.

    The thematic focus for this particular session is equity, inclusion, and diversity in teaching and course design.

    Proposed Objectives
    • Discover some practices to nurture an inclusive virtual classroom environment, assignments, and activities.
    • Identify challenges to equity in remote teaching and discuss ways to approach those challenges
    • Share what is on your mind
