Humans engage with plants with an expectation that these organisms have the capacity to grow and thrive. Plants are extremely sensitive to external environmental conditions and adapt their growth and behavior to dynamic cues, which results in optimized survival and productivity. The specific ways in which humans engage with the plants growing in their environment offer many lessons about mentoring, professional development interventions and impactful leadership, as well as a need for promoting ecosystems-based awareness, tending, and cultivation to promote the success of individuals therein. Dr. Montgomery will discuss specific plant biology-inspired practices for supporting the comprehensive development of a diverse range of students, academic staff, and faculty members as researchers, scholarly thinkers, and independent practitioners.
Speakers: Dr. Beronda Montgomery, Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the College, Grinnell College

Each framework will provide tangible examples of resistance, stagnation, progress and transformation. Participants will be asked to identify where they/their institution are/is on their journey and identify opportunities for new skills or topics to learn, where to learn that information, and how to move beyond their current capacity.

What does it mean to care for everyone who works in the academy? For the past year, Cate Denial has been leading a Mellon-funded grant bringing together thirty-seven participants from flagship research institutions, SLACs, regional publics, and community colleges to investigate this question. Come hear what it might mean to be attentive to justice, believe faculty and staff, and believe in faculty and staff across higher ed as we tussle with issues of disability, trauma, and sustainable teaching practices. This presentation will have moments of reflection woven throughout, and ask attendees to think about their own definitions of care in the academy, too.

Diné writers, often expected to speak of their work for its content and aesthetic alone, carry a compounded burden since settler-colonial patterns of subjection promote primitivism; genocidal legislative history; and Hollywood-glossed, southwest aesthetics, including violence and savagism. This panel presents Diné craft methods and Dinétics (Diné aesthetics/poetics), which are erased or obscured (at best) and violated or made meaningless (at worst), to interrogate false narratives as an act of restoration.

In this interactive session, Susan D Blum introduces some of the principles behind the growing practices united under the umbrella of “ungrading” - calling into question the centrality of conventional grading practices. She also talks about many concrete practices that she and others use to implement upgrading -leading to greater learning, engagement, and equity. Participants will have a chance to raise questions and think about their own teaching practices.
Susan D Blum is a professor of anthropology at the University of Notre Dame, currently fixated on education and pedagogical praxis, after a previous incarnation as a China anthropologist. She is the author of "I Love Learning; I Hate School”: An Anthropology of College (Cornell, 2016) and My Word! Plagiarism and College Culture (Cornell, 2009), and the editor of the recent volume Ungrading: Why Rating Students Undermines Learning (and What to Do Instead) (West Virginia University Press, 2020). With 5 co-authors, she has written “A Theory of Public Higher Education,” imagining public higher education created from scratch, published in Soundings: An Interdisciplinary Journal in July 2021 (Korstange et al., 2021). Her new manuscript, Challenging Schoolishness, is due to Cornell University Press soon. In her work, she draws on her background in cultural, linguistic, and psychological anthropology to ask questions about learning, and about the ways institutions shape and are shaped by cultural patterns. She is trying to move beyond complete relativism to make practical but principled recommendations.

One of the most persistent and pernicious myths about current students in higher education is that they are all digital natives, they are all at ease and knowledgeable about the nature of technology, and thus what they need is less explicit focus on it in the classroom. In this workshop, we will discuss why these myths are pernicious and about the value of including digital projects in the liberal arts classroom. We will also talk about how digital projects can fit into a variety of pedagogical models as well as how to scaffold and evaluate them on the block plan using equitable grading practices.

We know CLD students are those whose culture and language differ from that of the dominant group (Herrera & Murry, 2016). But what does this mean for our teaching? Do CLD students learn differently from non-CLD students? What does being a “culturally and linguistically responsive educator” actually mean? What can I do to best facilitate learning for CLD students in my classes?
This session will demystify these principles of CLD learning and will give participants an opportunity to learn simple strategies to put into practice to optimize CLD student learning. Participants will also be able to hear comments written by CC CLD students on the topic of what they want faculty to know about their classroom experiences. This session aims to empower participants in their pursuit of creating equitable classrooms for CLD learners.

This development workshop is an opportunity for educators to learn about LGBTQ+ identities, gender, and sexuality, and examine our prejudice, assumptions, and privilege. There is a pressure to already know how to be LGBTQ+ inclusive, but what that looks like in practice can be hard to know.

This workshop offers a space for educators to learn together how we can best support our LGBTQ+ students.

The goal of this session is to surface, discuss, and interrogate the ways in which the language of antiracism is promoted, but also appropriated, through discursive moves of white civility (Coleman, 2008). In this workshop, we will work together to better understand how antiracist language— that is often circulated in and by corporate, and social media entities— surfaces in classrooms, but may or may not be actualized in interpersonal, departmental, institutional, and even cultural relationships, policy, and action.

The goal of this session is to examine how to maximize Third Space by making visible classroom culture and the way power operates within and through it. By explicitly examining how students’ and instructors’ cultural and social capital is exchanged in learning spaces, we will discuss how Third Space provides an opportunity to examine the contestation of competing (and sometimes hidden) narratives in classrooms. We will also discuss how to make this theoretical orientation to learning clear for students so that students—across disciplines— can better understand their role in the sociocultural process of learning.

The goal of this session is to examine the ways in which “ableism acts as the polite face of racism” (Bornstein, 2022, personal communication). In this session, we will explore how course expectations, assignments, and norms can uphold a “white supremacy culture” (Okun, 2022) or, alternatively, dismantle it. Using a tool developed on the tenets of Disability Critical Race Theory (DisCrit) (Annamma et al., 2013), participants will examine our own syllabi to look for ways in which long-held norms of higher education may act as barriers or supports for students with multiply marginalized identities in our classrooms.
