Past Events
In this workshop, participants will learn the basic outline of a lesson and practice creating these steps for their own teaching material: the objective, introduction, activity, wrap-up, and assessment. We will dwell on the “activity” stage to discuss scaffolding techniques. Finally, participants will brainstorm assessment methods to check if their lesson plans were successful. Instructors will leave with a useable lesson plan for their classrooms.

In this workshop we will explore some notable frameworks for inclusive teaching and learning. Participants will recognize that inclusivity in the classroom will go beyond the work done in this workshop, identify strategies that can be applied immediately to our teaching, and lastly formulate a plan as to which framework or idea to ‘dig deeper’ into as an act of continued work in this topic.
