We know that students who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) feel more able to learn if their classrooms are welcoming and inclusive. We also know that lots of people want to make their classrooms inclusive, but don’t know how to do so, or what to say. This workshop provides an opportunity to start to understand why making your classroom inclusive is important, and suggests simple changes you can make that could make a big difference. Please know that you are not expected to know anything about LGBT ‘issues’ or the ‘right’ language before you come.
This session is open to staff of the University of Glasgow. For the avoidance of doubt as to eligibility, it would be helpful if you could please register using your staff email address.
Tea and coffee will be available.
