The end of the semester is hard on everyone–but UICUF members especially can help our students in three important ways:
- Fill out survey below about faculty needs for creating inclusive classrooms at UIC
- Student Wellness Study Break April 26th – sign up to volunteer!
- Donate to the UICUF FAST Fund
UICUF is collaborating with the UIC Disability Cultural Center (DCC), the Disability Resource Center (DRC) and the Center for the Advancement of Teaching Excellence (CATE) to create a Fall 2023 workshop series focused on supporting faculty on inclusive classroom practices. These workshops will be for faculty, by faculty, and focused on what you want to know to transform your classroom. To help get us started, please choose what you would most like to discuss with your peers from the list below:
- Best practices for working with student Letters of Accommodation (LOAs)
- What to do when you suspect a student is struggling mentally and/or emotionally
- How to make your classroom and technology use more accessible using Universal Design
- Other faculty’s experiences adopting more accessible pedagogy and practice
- Creating accessible class materials
- Information about the most common classroom accommodations and student support technology
