oms\, Curriculum\, and on Our Campuses

How do we pro
mote belonging and inclusivity with a genuine appreciation of multiple pers
pectives of community members on our campuses? In this session Dr. Viji Sat

rom her scholarship of teaching and learning to show examples of classroom
and curricular strategies that can improve student learning\, increase inte
rest in STEM\, and lay the foundation for broader participation in STEM. Dr
. Sathy will also share some of the tools and curricular innovations she ha
s helped to develop on her campus to foster inclusion and student thriving.
Lastly\, she will lead the group through a discussion of how we can cultiv
ate inclusion at all stages of training and mentorship in our discipline an
d how we can ask ourselves the questions she often poses: “Who is not in
the room\, and why?” as well as “Who are we not hearing from\, and
why?”
