dc.descriptionParticipants in this session will: • Discuss basic concepts of inclusive writing and microlearning; • Examine existing microlearning materials for teaching inclusive writing; and • Explore how to find and develop discipline specific micro-learning topics.
dc.description.abstractStudent writers master the use of inclusive language – one of the cornerstones of both Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) – more efficiently when they encounter them in General Education courses and courses central to their program of study (Cook-Sather, Des-Ogugua, and Bahti, 2018). However, teaching inclusive language presents challenges due to both student resistance and faculty’s limited experience teaching writing and/or inclusive teaching concepts (Brock, Sanchez, and Sharpe, 2020). Pre-set course content and curriculum exacerbates this situation. One tool for exploring discipline-specific linguistic changes leverages microlearning in seminar. This session examines basic principles of microlearning, demonstrate how to create and share inclusive learning microlearning materials, and explores existing resources from PG’s Writing Across the Curriculum Faculty Website. Participants will be invited to share examples of recent changes to the language used in their field of study as a starting point for developing micro-learning materials.
