Description: |
Pressing global challenges demand for developing collaborative problem-solvers in higher education. Promoting open-mindedness in the classroom is a primary step in opening up new horizons for students. Building an open-minded learning environment also helps instructors to become more inclusive in their teaching practices. The willingness to hear and discuss a broad range of views in a safe and respectful environment is therefore important for both students and instructors in our interconnected world. In this workshop, graduate student instructors and teaching assistants will explore cross-disciplinary approaches, tools, and strategies to promote open-mindedness in their teaching practices
Participants will be able to...
1. Discuss criteria for creating a safe, respectful, and open-minded learning environment; and
2. Explore models and strategies for promoting open-mindedness in their teaching practices. |
