It’s well known in Higher Education that students feeling a greater sense of belonging experience greater student success and overall well-being. But what do we mean when we say belonging? And what can faculty and staff do in the classroom to enhance feelings of belonging? Join Christopher Donoghue and Eunice Park to learn about classroom strategies and pedagogies that can raise feelings of belonging and inclusion. In this session, you will learn about culturally responsive teaching, scaffolding, place-based learning, transparency in learning, and more. You will also hear what our students had to say about belonging in a series of Belonging Brainstorming Sessions held in the last few months.
This study was commissioned by Provost Junius Gonzales to provide insights to all Montclair faculty and staff in their work ensuring student success. Understanding the insights gained from this survey will be helpful as we craft and hone our programming and work in and outside of classrooms.
All members of the Montclair community are welcome. Light refreshments will be provided.
