Foundations of Inclusive Teaching

The course includes definitions, short readings, videos, reflective questions, teaching strategies, and other resources. Participants will complete a series of self-paced learning activities, record their teaching ideas in a notebook or teaching journal, and complete a formal reflection. Adjunct faculty will be compensated for 6 hours for this course. This course is always available for registration.

EITP Level 1: Equitable & Inclusive Teaching Practices. Course begins May 31, 2022 


This online, facilitated Canvas course focuses on teaching practices that support learning and educational equity for community college students from diverse social, cultural, racial, linguistic, and educational backgrounds. Participants complete course development activities and work toward redesigning a course based on principles for effective, equitable, and inclusive teaching. Participants complete a short orientation and eight, 2-hour modules (one per week) with readings, videos, reflection questions, learning activities, and online discussions. Adjunct faculty are compensated 16 hours for this course. The course begins May 31 and runs through August 1.
