Inclusive teaching means teaching in ways that do not exclude students, accidentally or intentionally, from opportunities to learn. The CTL proposes strategies for inclusive teaching and provides resources, examples, and perspectives from students and faculty to help members of the UW teaching community teach more inclusively.
“Start by trying to understand who your students are, by honoring the prior experience and knowledge they bring to the classroom, and by providing on-going opportunities for every student to have a voice in the class.”
James Borgford-Parnell, Assistant Director, Center for Engineering Learning and Teaching
