TIPS on Supporting a Neurodiverse Classroom - virtual Online
Teaching Improvement and Practice Series (TIPS) series is hosted on the first Friday of each month from 2-3pm. This professional development series brings together educators from across campus to share innovative approaches, effective strategies, and practical insights. Enhance your classroom techniques, elevate your curriculum development, and refine your pedagogical methods through engaging sessions and peer discussions.
This month, Dr. Min Zhuang will be sharing on supporting a neurodiverse classroom and share her custom GPT designed to guide development of inclusive classroom activities.
Min is a research associate at EDLI with a Ph.D. in Educational Foundations from Saint Louis University. Her research interests center on the intersection of diversity and inclusion in education, and she employs qualitative and quantitative methods in her work. Before joining the EDLI in 2023, she worked at Saint Louis University as an adjunct faculty in Mandarin. She also has experience in teaching graduate and undergraduate foundation courses in research, professional ethics, and multicultural issues.
Regardless of your title or role, if you contribute to the teaching & learning, student success, and/or outreach missions of the university, YOU are an educator and we look forward to learning with and from you. Let's transform teaching together!
