VIRTUAL TEACH-IN: “Mirrors, Doors, and Windows: Inter-Cultural Approaches to Teaching and Learning”

Join members of the Baruch Community on Friday, April 8, 2022, 1:00-3:00pm on Zoom, as we explore inter-cultural approaches to teaching and learning, grounded in culturally-responsive and culturally-sustaining pedagogies. Learn how to better support students from a variety of backgrounds (e.g., ethnicities, races, religions, cultures), including immigrants, international students, and multilingual students, using a strengths rather than deficits framework. We will have a keynote speaker is Arlene Torres (Hunter College) and a workshop facilitated by colleagues from Tools for Clear Speech and the Writing Center. You will have a chance to workshop some of your teaching material and get specific strategies to implement in your teaching. The event is sponsored by the Office of the Provost and will be led by Dr. Anna D’Souza, the Provost Innovation Fellow for Inclusive Teaching and Associate Professor at the Austin W. Marxe School of Public and International Affairs. Read more here. Please contact anna.dsouza@baruch.cuny.edu with questions.
