As educators, we want to do our jobs well. We want to be fair, we want to promote safe communities, and we want to support all our students in every aspect of their lives. Tools help you realize these goals that you already have.
Educators, even those with experience and compassion, may unconsciously negatively impact students in their classrooms. We believe that through consistent study and reflection, we can slowly address our own unconscious biases and make changes so we can better support the academic, social and emotional well-being of our students.
We want YOU to be part of a decentralized inquiry series to support educators to better explore their own biases and improve their own teaching practices.
This Reading and Inquiry Series provides a monthly set of tools for learning, introspection and having conversations about issues of racism in our university, classrooms and communities. We hope that through regular reflection and conversation, you can get better at recognizing and resisting your biases and the impact they have on your students and colleagues.
