Leaning into Discomfort: Creating Positionality and Inclusivity Statements for Teaching and Learning

Schedule: Thursday, October 03, 2024, 09:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Location: Freed Orman Centre, Assumption University
Instructors: Natalie Beltrano, Jenn Myer

As instructors, we face an increasing call from students to engage with the principles of social justice in the classroom. Our felt sense of agency and personal motivation influences our ability to respond to this call and engage with the transformative potential it offers.

In this 3-hour, active workshop, participants will be provided intentional time and activities to explore their identities as well as their experiences of both exclusion and inclusion in institutions of higher education and beyond. By critically reflecting on their intersecting identities and experiences, participants will begin to locate and define their positionality in connection to their goals for inclusivity in the classroom and across the campus community.

As facilitators who continue to reflect on our experiences and intentions, we will share how we support social justice principles in the classroom, through our unique experiences and approaches to teaching and learning using our positionalities and beliefs of inclusivity. Engaged participants will leave the workshop with draft ideas for their positionality and inclusivity statements and a collective energy to begin to answer students' calls.

Across universities, teaching dossiers are increasingly used for hiring, renewal, tenure, and promotion purposes. They are powerful documents that provide for instructors the opportunity to reflect on and articulate what you value about teaching, how you believe students learn best, your teaching experiences, and more. This session will introduce teaching dossiers and their use in the post-secondary context, and will focus on the fundamentals of creating an effective teaching dossier that speaks to your beliefs about teaching and learning. We will discuss crafting a philosophy statement and collecting and displaying your teaching-related activities and accomplishments.
