This upcoming Fall 2022 semester, we will be reading 

Inclusive Teaching: Strategies for Promoting Equity in the College Classroom by Kelly A. Hogan & Viji Sathy

You can access the e-book through UT Libraires at this link.

About this book: In a book written by and for college teachers, Kelly Hogan and Viji Sathy provide tips and advice on how to make all students feel welcome and included. They begin with a framework describing why explicit attention to structure enhances inclusiveness in both course design and interactions with and between students. Inclusive Teaching then provides practical ways to include more voices in a series of contexts: when giving instructions for group work and class activities, holding office hours, communicating with students, and more. The authors finish with an opportunity for the reader to reflect on what evidence to include in a teaching dossier that demonstrates inclusive practices." (West Virginia University Press)

The book club meetings will be held virtually via Zoom! We will be discussing all aspects of the book, so each session will be different.

Meeting dates and times:

Tuesday, September 20 @ 1pm (chapters 1-3)
Tuesday, Oct 11 @ 1pm (chapters 4-6)
