Event sponsored by the Institute for Innovation in Research and Learning UWSA Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Closing the Achievement Gap Grant |
Thursday, April 23, 2009 We invite you to join us for a collegial discussion to share and reflect upon ways to improve student learning, especially for students of color, students with disabilities, or students who may need prerequisite knowledge. Invited panelists will examine student learning through multiple lenses in order to connect lesson study and the use of innovative technology (e.g., podcasts, digital learning modules) with diversity issues. Working in groups, you will build upon these lenses to explore ways to implement critical interventions in order to scaffold student understanding for your own courses. All are encouraged to attend one session or both sessions!! Please register in advance and indicate which session(s) you will be attending. RSVP: kosiak.jenn@uwlax.edu |
