As on online university with a global reach, Walden University faculty are challenged with creating inclusive classrooms where students of all backgrounds feel they are represented and welcomed. Regardless of background or experience, students need to feel they are equal participants in the classroom in order to fully engage with the course material. Presentation attendees will learn how they can use a framework of critical reflective practice to facilitate classes in a way that promotes an inclusive pedagogy. Attendees will also learn how cross-cultural content can be infused into course curriculum and will see an example of how one Walden program is currently doing so. Attendees will also learn innovative, yet practical, strategies that they can easily implement in their classrooms to promote an inclusive and cross-cultural learning community. Attendees will have an opportunity to reflect on their own classroom practices using a guiding tool provided at the presentation, and to leave with an action plan for implementation in their current and future classes.
