Small Steps toward Equity through Pedagogical Shifts​

This 30‑minute session explores how small, intentional pedagogical shifts can advance equity in everyday teaching practice. Using the lens of Critical Open Educational Practices with examples, faculty will examine how course materials ,instructional choices, and assessment practices can either reduce or reinforce barriers for students.​

Rather than focusing on large‑scale redesigns, this session highlights incremental, feasible actions—such as improving instructional accessibility, inviting student voice through open practices, and using AI tools responsibly—that collectively move learning environments toward greater equity, inclusion, and transparency.
