Summer Working Groups
The Dean for Academic Affairs office is pleased to support faculty summer working groups engaged in curricular and pedagogical development during the summer (between June 1 and August 15). We encourage summer working group efforts by groups of faculty within one or across multiple departments and programs.
This year we are especially interested in supporting summer working groups that that focus on:
- preparation for a department/programs external review
- departmental faculty workload equity projects (dashboard)
- accessibility, e.g. course materials, field trips, etc.
- curricular innovations that advance inclusive excellence
- antiracist pedagogy
- consideration of historical legacies of racism and exclusion in a particular canons, field, or discipline to develop a more inclusive curriculum (decolonizing your canon)
