The Nebraska Community of Learners — Understanding Diversity through Education is offering 29 small learning groups for the fall semester. Registration opens August 9th.
#NCLUDE small learning groups offer a space to talk candidly over the course of a semester, addressing inclusive excellence as a part of everyday interactions. These small groups are intended to develop relationships in concentrated areas of introspection to help students, faculty, staff, alumni and the larger community understand and embrace the opportunities to create a greater sense of inclusion for all.
The wide range of topics include international student support, universal design for learning, mental health, and navigating uncomfortable conversations, among others. The fall slate of #NCLUDE small groups are led by emerging and established diversity and inclusion leaders from across the university, including members of Nebraska Extension, the Center for Academic Success and Transition, University Honors Program, and the Center on Children, Family, and the Law.
Learning group participants commit to meeting six times over the semester with the same small group of six to 12 people. Participants will have designated learning materials to prepare for each meeting, and the discussions will focus on applying those materials through self-reflection and everyday action.
Registration opens August 9th and closes on Aug. 30. All are invited into this community of care.
