Description
Graduate student and postdoctoral instructors provide important face to face support and instruction to a diverse population of students in large lectures as well as smaller seminars. Therefore, it is key that they understand how to cultivate a learning environment that is inclusive and effective for all types of learners, especially neurodivergent learners. By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
* Describe the current understanding of neurodiversity and the impact of several common types of neurodiversity on undergraduate student learning
* Distinguish between extraneous and intrinsic cognitive load in the context of classroom activities and assessments
* Analyze classroom activities and assessments for possible negative impacts on neurodivergent learners, as well as strategies for mitigating such impacts
