SUMMARY:PIT Stop: Operationalizing Equity: Strategies for Effective Pedagogy
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Daniel Reinholz\, Professor\, Department of Mathematics and Statistics\, San Diego State University \nThis talk focuses on the use of data to support equitable teaching. I discuss my development of the EQUIP observation tool\, as well as professional development work with mathematics faculty. Out of this work\, I share practical strategies that college instructors can use to promote an equitable and engaging classroom environment. I also discuss a learning process that faculty members can engage in to help them better uptake the strategies in an effective way. I draw heavily from my new book\, Equitable and Engaging Mathematics Teaching: A Guide to Disrupting Hierarchies in the Classroom\, which is freely available as an e-book or for purchase as a print copy. \n\n

SUMMARY:Contract Grading: An Alternate Assessment Approach
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Erika Offerdahl\, Director and Professor in the School of Molecular Biosciences\, College of Veterinary Medicine\, WSU Pullman \nContract grading\, emerging as a response to the limitations of high-stakes grading systems\, prioritizes effort over performance and empowers students to take ownership of their learning journey. This pedagogical approach\, characterized by negotiated agreements between instructors and students\, offers a flexible framework that accommodates diverse learning styles and preferences. Unlike traditional grading schemes\, contract grading emphasizes task-oriented design and encourages early and open communication between stakeholders. In this presentation\, three types of contract grading will be introduced followed by a more in-depth examination of hybrid grading contracts and finally a Q&A for instructors interested in exploring this approach in their own classroom. \n

SUMMARY:PIT Stop: Incorporating More Group Work in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Elli Theobald\, Associate Professor\, University of Washington \nEducational inequity remains one of the most persistent and intractable problems in our society. Without equity\, the STEM workforce in particular is unlikely to meet the needs of the growing economy and will also suffer from stunted innovation\, as diverse groups are more creative and more successful at solving complex problems. Despite widespread efforts to increase access to and inclusion in STEM\, minoritized students remain excluded from both STEM majors and STEM professions. The reasons for this are complex but instructors can play an active role in disrupting these inequities. \n

SUMMARY:PIT Stop: Classroom Assessment that Promotes Inclusion
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Jenny Knight \n  \nStudents arrive in our classrooms with a diversity of experiences\, knowledge\, and skills. By adopting inclusive assessment practices\, faculty and graduate teaching assistants can create a more welcoming and supportive learning environment\, reduce bias\, and improve student engagement and motivation. In this one-hour session\, Dr. Jenny Knight (UC-Boulder) will review best practices for engaging students in learning and assessing their progress\, and help participants create a tool chest of practices they will be comfortable implementing. \n  \nDr. Jenny Knight has a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from the University of Michigan. She has been teaching undergraduates at all levels for over twenty years\, ranging from freshmen-level genetics to senior-level developmental biology\, along with graduate courses in pedagogy. After transitioning from lab bench to biology education research in 2004\, she has developed concept assessments\, studied the benefits of peer discussion of clicker questions\, investigated how students solve complex problems in genetics\, and is currently working on how to stimulate self-regulation and metacognition. \n  \n
