The
Diversity in the Classroom project focuses on teaching
to diversity and teaching diversity with strategies that
align with institutional and discipline-specific goals
to enhance the human and intellectual diversity environment
for student learning. A collaborative and interdisciplinary
initiative, Diversity in the Classroom workshops and discussions
have provided opportunities for sharing best practices
and articulating diversity-centered classroom practices
and curriculum approaches.
Objectives of the Diversity in
the Classroom project are to provide leadership for scholars
to discuss inclusive
approaches to teaching, learning and assessment, to increase
knowledge and skills about the interaction between diversity
across disciplines, and to create a common language used
to inform and improve methods to teach to diversity and
teach diversity at Purdue University.
Goals of the Diversity
in the Classroom project are to create student diversity
competencies in behavior and
intellectual abilities through classroom practices
and curriculum development.
