In an effort to better support our TAs and to make SIPS classes more inclusive and equitable, the SIPS Diversity and Inclusion Council has put together a brand new short training titled, “The Role of TAs in Cultivating an Inclusive Learning Environment.” This interactive workshop will help you understand diversity in the classroom and provide you with inclusive teaching strategies that will help you become a more effective TA for students from diverse backgrounds. You will also get a chance to meet fellow SIPS TAs, learn about additional teaching resources and opportunities, and establish a support network for your teaching endeavors here in SIPS.

This interactive workshop is scheduled for Wednesday February 3rd from 12pm-1:15pm and will be hosted by Joshua Garcia (Horticulture) and Kavya Krishnan (Soil and Crop Sciences), Cornell Center for Teaching Innovation Graduate Fellows and SIPS D&I council members.
