CDI 2.X: Equitable Collaborative Learning

Have you tried group work and want to refine your approach? How can you create a classroom environment to support collaborative teams to function and flourish? This two-day session led by Lynn Mandeltort and Lindsay Wheeler offers a deeper dive into the essentials of equitable collaborative learning.

With a focus on enduring groups and/or assignments, participants will engage with different types of collaborative assignments/activities, practice recognizing power imbalances, apply principles of inclusive teaching to collaborative learning, and gain confidence in utilizing collaborative work. Participants will come away with an articulation of their own pedagogical values around equitable collaborative learning and a (re)designed collaborative assignment for their course.

Prior experience with course design is preferred but not required. Priority will be given to our Course Design Institute and c3Design alumni; instructors who have not completed either program will be admitted on a case-by-case basis.
