Presented by Christy Jersin Woods, Melissa Kreider, Ji' Lynda Brown, Karin Bright, Amy Quinn-Sparks
This presentation explores the importance of inclusive course design in higher education, focusing on supporting the diverse student population at Colorado State University (CSU) to enhance student success.
The session begins with a pre-reflection activity, "Do Think Feel," to gain insights into students' perspectives. Participants are then guided through collaborative discussions to challenge preconceived notions about students and address implicit biases.
The presentation emphasizes the significance of data collection and surveys to understand student experiences, showcasing examples of learner profiles created based on institutional data. It highlights the use of learner profiles in informing instructional design and fostering inclusivity.
Reflective exercises and concrete examples are provided to motivate participants to embrace inclusive design and create equitable learning. The presentation concludes by inviting participants to share their feedback and contact information for further discussions and resource sharing.
Through this presentation, educators are inspired to design differently and collectively contribute to a more inclusive educational experience for all students.
