Project EDDIE Leader Development Workshop 25 September 2022
How do we foster inclusive, equitable learning spaces?
Lessons from the literature Position learners as knowledge- generators Validate learners scientific identities Foster sense of belonging Allow learners to make mistakes Honor and leverage learners funds of knowledge. Promote the use of learners critical lens to solve societal problems Value learners lived experiences as evidence Cultivate relationships Use active learning and group work
How can we adapt these strategies to our workshops? 4

Meeting Learners Where They Are 26 September 2022 Session 2 6
Heres the situation You are getting ready to lead an adoption workshop. Your primary goal is to get participants to adopt at least one EDDIE module by integrating it into their course. Your participants are: A. Faculty members in your department/school/college B. New/incoming faculty at your institution who are from a variety of STEM units C. High school science and math teachers who want to team up and provide cross- curricular instruction D. College/university STEM faculty from a variety of institutions E. A group of social scientists at your institution who want to extend the EDDIE model into their courses 7
Discussion Questions What questions do you want to ask your participants prior to the workshop? How will you use this information to structure your workshop? Will you provide different pathways/options to achieve the goal of module adoption, and if so, what would they be? How do you want the physical space of the workshop to be set up for these learners, specifically? 8
