Conversations with Colleagues: October 2024
Topic: Promoting Equity through Data Practices
Hosts: Susan Parry, Hennepin Technical College and Martin Springborg, Dakota County Technical College
In FY25, the Educational Development Committee is focusing on the theme “Promoting Equity through Data Practices.” After viewing a short video “Education gap: The root of inequality” we will connect the video’s themes with the Minnesota State Equity 2030 goal.
Our conversation will be guided by questions such as:
- In light of equity gap data, what are we doing to change our practices?
- What are specific examples from your campus? What changes have you seen in admissions and teaching practices?
- What’s working well? What isn’t? What barriers are you seeing to student retention and success?
- How do we best support faculty in this work?
Conversations with Colleagues is a platform for colleagues across Minnesota State to gather remotely to share ideas and bring questions (along with your lunch). These gatherings are held on the 4th Tuesday of every other month. Conversations with Colleagues is hosted by faculty and staff from the Minnesota State Educational Development Committee.
Join for an opportunity to engage in rich conversation in both small and large groups and networking with colleagues across the state! We have amazing innovations and work being done across the state and the goal of Conversations with Colleagues is to foster a network of support for faculty and staff across Minnesota State.
