TA Month: Identifying and Addressing Microaggressions in the Classroom (Online)

Microaggressions are defined as the “daily, constant, often subtle, and seemingly innocuous, covert and overt negative messages and actions directed toward people from marginalized groups” (Sue, 2010 as cited in Bell, 2016, p. 7). With this framework in mind, this workshop understands the university classroom as one such space where microaggressions may occur. This workshop will explore how to identify and address these microaggressions in pursuit of teaching for social justice and equity and in line with University policies.

Offered as part of TA Month. Visit the TA Month Website for more information.
