CANCELED: PFF Workshop: Navigating Instructor Identity

This two-hour workshop will enable GSAS students to reflect on their identity and the role they play as instructor when dealing with issues of diversity in the classroom.

The workshop will be led by Margo Jackson, Ph.D., professor of counseling and counseling psychology in Fordham’s Graduate School of Education. Jackson’s research focuses on the hidden biases and strengths of counselors, educators, and leaders. She will guide students through the difficulties of grappling with one’s identity while trying to teach a class, which often involves dealing with tense and contentious issues surrounding diversity in the classroom. You do not currently need to be teaching to participate in this seminar. All are welcome.

This workshop will satisfy part of Core Competency 5 (Diversity in the Classroom) for the Preparing Future Faculty certificate.
