3:30 – 5:00 p.m.

Facilitated by: Irene Duranczyk and Sara Schoen
Associate professor Irene Duranczyk uses digital technologies to offer collaborative online courses for PsTL graduate students in multicultural critical pedagogies and exploring access and success issues. Irene is also developing collaborations with and presentations for and with educators in Russia using digital technology. Sara Schoen is an instructional designer with the University’s Academic Technology Support Services who received her Master’s in Multicultural College Teaching and Learning last year. Her master project was, “Supporting Online Learning with Multicultural Equity Pedagogy and Chickering and Gamson’s 7 Principles.” Join them as they discuss ways to integrate digital technologies into curriculum and professional development that support developing and maintaining a sense of community and engagement in collaborations. Together, we’ll stretch our thinking about inclusive pedagogies. Attendees are encouraged to bring a digital device to access Moodle and digital course resources.
