Are you wondering how to begin the process of writing a diversity statement for a teaching portfolio? Do you have limited experience with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) frameworks that might help you identify your current practices or goals? This introductory presentation will offer some background on diversity statements, sample job announcements, rubrics, glossary resources, and writing prompts to get you started.

Increasing Student Engagement Using Open Pedagogy and the Archives
Tuesday, June 13th, 2023
12:00 PM - 01:20 PM
Other Online
Open pedagogy can engage your students' creativity to provide engaging, immersive educational experiences that foster deep learning. Combining open pedagogy with the vast potential of UConn’s archival collections, learners can engage in hands-on analysis of unique collections and develop content that they then can share openly with the wider world. Join us for 60 minutes or 80 minutes to see how you can engage directly with the primary documents from Archives & Special Collections to empower your students as open-content creators!
We hope to begin with a lively discussion and transition to an exploration of utilizing open pedagogy and materials from Archives & Special Collections to create alternatives to your own existing or new research assignments. The last twenty minutes of the session will be available for more in-depth consultations on your course.
Objectives:
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
1. Discuss the benefits and challenges of utilizing open pedagogical practices in the classroom.
2. Articulate how primary sources can be utilized to fulfill course objectives and the value of incorporating them in the classroom.
3. Use open pedagogy examples and primary source materials from Archives & Special Collections to begin developing research assignments for their class(es).
