About This Workshop
If diversifying curriculum is important, but you want to go beyond representation, come learn about strategies you can use to get started.
We will start by exploring what diversity means and why it matters in curriculum development. Next, we'll discuss how it helps students and their learning. Identifying gaps in curriculum is important, and we will do that across content areas so we can learn how to close them. Lastly, we will review how to move forward and keep this important work of diversifying the curriculum going. You will leave feeling prepared and ready to do this work thoughtfully.
