About this book

This book explores theory and best practices to improve teaching and learning to promote equity in the classroom in specific disciplinary areas including STEM, healthcare, and the humanities. Each chapter includes actionable pedagogical or curricular recommendations such as course assignments and lesson plans. This is the second of four edited volumes focusing on applications of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) for more equitable learning opportunities.

Reviews

"In times of crisis, it can be easy for educators to begin to feel that it’s nearly impossible to make much of a difference. But this need not be the case. We can be inclusive in ways that improve the lives of learners and lead them to seek to improve the lives of others in turn. This volume has a clear focus on how through teaching and learning theory and practice, educators can promote social justice and equity. This text will be an invaluable reader for educators who recognize not only the necessity of but also the possibility and hope for change."
—Claire Major, Professor, Higher Education Administration, University of Alabama, USA
