"Everything is so colorful here!" - Gender and diversity-sensitive teaching, testing and mentoring
An increasingly diverse student body and the growing importance of gender and diversity bring new challenges for university lecturers in recent years. What should gender and diversity-sensitive teaching look like? Which options do I have for adapting content and methods to the different needs, talents, and expectations of my students? How can I communicate, motivate, inspire and empower in a way that is inclusive and enables participation?
This course focuses on two main perspectives of diversity-sensitive teaching: Self-reflection/Awareness and Diversity-sensitive communication in teaching contexts. Participants will learn about theories of diversity and methods how to apply these into an aware and inclusive yet pragmatic teaching style. The course is designed to enable participants to acquire new knowledge and exchange their existing expertise and experience amongst each other in order to hone their skills and further equip their toolbox with inclusive habits and methods for diversity-sensitive education and communication .
The seminar can be credited for the Zertifikat Hochschullehre Bayern and the Genderzertifikat Lehre.
