The Engineering Inclusive Teaching (EIT) project offers this FREE, highly interactive webinar on how to craft an equitable and inclusive learning environment. You are sure to come way with practical strategies and tips to apply to your own teaching.

Utilizing an innovative framework developed at the Simmons School of Management for promoting equity in organizations, we will explore the application of this 4-frame model for inclusivity and change in learning environments.

The frames provided help educators examine practices that:

= Equip the individual student;
= Reduce barriers to student engagement;
= Recognize and value the diversity students bring; and
= Create the foundation for an ongoing, iterative approach to crafting an inclusive, equitable context for all learners.

This well-integrated approach helps educators recognize and address the complex role diversity plays in learning environments. You will never think of equity in education in quite the same way.

This webinar is designed to be broadly applicable, although examples are specific to engineering contexts, and we welcome all who are interested to join us!

Our Presenter: Dr. Beth Holloway
Dr. Beth Holloway is the Director of the Women in Engineering Program (WIEP) and the Assistant Dean for Undergraduate Education in the College of Engineering at Purdue University. As WIEP Director, she helps develop and administer research-based activities and programs to recruit and retain women in engineering from kindergarten through graduate school. As Assistant Dean, she is responsible for retention of undergraduate students. Holloway is also the current chair of the Women in Engineering Division of the American Society for Engineering Education.
