Microaggressions: Identifying, Understanding, and Responding

Registration and Payment Deadline: 

Friday, November 3, 2023

Microaggressions come up frequently, both inside and outside the classroom. They often target students, teachers, and staff based on perceived or actual gender, race, sexual orientation, religion, or other identity markers.

Microaggressions are often subtle and difficult to identity and even more difficult to respond to in a way that builds knowledge and empathy. This course will provide an overview of what microaggressions are, the impact they have on students and staff, and effective ways to respond to them in ways that facilitate learning, reflection, and growth.

Time will be taken for participants to practice responding to microaggressions and gaining confidence in their ability to be responsive and inclusive educators.
