OPEN Math: Inclusive Active Learning in Mathematics

This workshop will support participants to adopt or fine-tune the use of active learning instructional practices with a focus on pedagogy that supports inclusive and equitable learning communities. We will consider course structures, policies, instructional practices and assessment strategies related to Precalculus, Calculus 1, 2 and 3. The workshop will be appropriate, relevant and applicable for all participants interested in using active learning instructional practices including those considering active learning for the first time and those who have been using active learning approaches for many years. The workshop will be organized around the premise that we can all learn from each other and we all have experiences that, when shared, contribute to the learning of others in the group. Participants will have opportunities to engage with prerecorded scenarios and other attendees for the purpose of considering how to facilitate conversations with other members of their departments and navigating challenging situations and conversations that can arise in undergraduate mathematics classrooms. Participants will have the opportunity to develop or revise a syllabus and lesson plans for a class they will be teaching the following semester.
