The Inclusive STEM Teaching Project, a NSF Improving Undergraduate STEM Education program, is hosting a free, six-week Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) from March 23 – May 4, 2022 via edX. Join our community of over 4,000 faculty, postdocs, graduate students, and staff, and register for our online course this spring. By participating in this course, you will learn how to:
- Advance your awareness, self-efficacy, and ability to cultivate inclusive classroom environments;
- Support your development as a reflective, inclusive practitioner;
- Engage in reflection and discussion around topics of equity and inclusion across a variety of institutional contexts;
- Implement inclusive teaching methods in your classes which will remove common barriers and enhance learning in STEM for all students.
There are two options for participation:
- Take the course asynchronous, on your own time (and place).
- Take the online course and join a Learning Community based at IU that meets once a week for 80 minutes during the course run. Signup here.

The IU Expand Course, Teaching for Student Success: An Evidence-Based Approach, 2e – has added content on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Social Justice. This set of three (3) modules is advertised to help you frame your own diversity awareness, which will guide you as you redesign your courses using DEIJ principles. You can also share your new knowledge with the broader university community and help us build more equitable environments at IU. The content was designed by faculty at all of the IU campuses.
FACET will take a cohort through this course based on department or school. Please reply to this email and let me know if you would like for this to be coordinated. https://expand.iu.edu/courses/teaching-for-student-success-an-evidence-based-approach-2e?utm_campaign=Happenings&utm_medium=Email&utm_source=Newsletter
