Culturally competent courses can provide instructors and students with the knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behaviors to engage in positive relationships, and effectively work in cross cultural situations. This workshop will encourage teaching assistants to review their course materials, and consider whether readings, media, lectures, or assignments can be adjusted to be more inclusive and representative of the diversity of the university. Themes will include integrating cultural relevance and diverse role models and confronting and revising stereotypes.

This workshop explores the purposes of a diversity statement for academic employment, reviews pedagogical practices for teaching diverse students, and examines how scholars can talk about diversity in their teaching and research. Armed with this information, participants review and critique sample diversity statements before work-shopping their own ideas and drafts of the diversity statement. Participants should bring any materials related to the diversity statement that they have already prepared.
