What is inclusive teaching, and why does it matter for the online spaces where our students engage with us and with each other? In this session, we’ll address challenges to creating inclusive environments and explore the affordances CarmenCanvas provides us to do so. We will discuss ways to improve online discussions, set expectations for respectful dialogue, create opportunities for metacognition and reflection, provide accessible and representative material, and create a supportive instructor presence online. You will have opportunities to consider the strategies that fit best within your own course context and share ideas with other participants.

This workshop is intended for any Ohio State educator. Carmen is an important tool even when teaching in-person—you do not need to be teaching fully online to adapt these strategies.
