Newsprint, Snowball, Toolbox: Strategies to Decolonize the University Classroom In-Person

The Buffalo State Pedagogical Institute is a week of professional collaboration that develops instructional skills and integrates campus resources. The 2024 Institute is scheduled for May 20–23.  Instructors and coordinators of Student Success, first-year, and general education courses, TRIO personnel, student services professionals, and administrators will benefit from the workshops and discussions. All sessions will be in Bacon 115.

Decolonizing education requires pedagogical approaches to foster empathy, cultural competence, and open mindedness. It also requires the use of strategies to increase student engagement within education spaces. Educators will learn how to include diverse voices and address historical injustices through discussion protocols in higher education classrooms from all disciplines.

Lunch will be provided from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.
