Leaning into the Discomfort: Writing Positionality Statements for Teaching and Learning
Instructor: Natalie Beltrano
Schedule: Tuesday, April 30, 2024, 1:00 – 3:00 p.m.
Location: CTL 1232/1233 (700 California)
Participants will engage in discussions and interdisciplinary techniques to enhance critical self-reflection through an intersectionality lens. Through engaging in deep critical self-reflection, participants will begin to define their positionality and how this informs their goals for inclusivity. As a group, participants will identify strategies to apply standpoints in the classroom environment, through curriculum, in assessment and evaluation strategies, and teaching methods. Participants will leave the workshop with developing positionality and inclusivity statements and specific strategies to bring their whole selves to teaching and their community of practice.
