RELATE (Re-imagining Equity in Learning And Teaching at Emerson) Pilot Project

Dr. Tuesda Roberts, Director for Faculty Development and Diversity and Samantha Ivery, Director of Diversity and Equity Initiatives are looking for faculty participants for the pilot project of the RELATE (Re-imagining Equity in Learning And Teaching at Emerson) training.

The Re-imagining Equity in Learning And Teaching at Emerson (RELATE) program will feature learning opportunities through which faculty can both reflect upon and make decisions about how their unique praxes can meaningfully incorporate anti-oppressive approaches.

We are asking participants to both engage with the material and provide feedback. We are seeking engaged faculty to provide feedback on 1-2 learning modules that are part of the envisioned program. Using Canvas, this largely asynchronous program takes faculty though information, resources and activities to further develop anti-oppressive practices.

Full-time and affiliated faculty are welcome to apply. We are particularly interested in participants who come from a wide range of departments, career paths, and experience with DEI work. Participants will receive an honorarium of $100. We expect that it will take approximately 8 hours over two weeks. The pilot period will conclude no later than April 1st, 2022.
