Through examination of social identities, implicit bias, and cultural humility, instructors will learn to challenge micro-aggressions, engage students’ prior knowledge and cultural capital, and build meaningful relationships that support student success. The course emphasizes the development of inclusive policies and curriculum that integrate students’ diverse cultural backgrounds and identities.
