These are my notes from today’s presentation. This meeting included a brief overview of the history of equity initiatives at SVC in general and in their faculty learning groups in specific. This is my first workshop on Tuesday, July 24 at the\u00a0Guided Pathways: Designing for Equity \u2013 Rendezvous 2018<\/a>\u00a0conference.<\/p>\n

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion<\/strong>

We logged into a Canvas course:\u00a0https:\/\/canvas.instructure.com\/courses\/1367908l<\/a> to review their materials, as well as materials on Google:\u00a0https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1JwFlGWI_gFgyXxSXFQ0jENcCTd3khCvT<\/a><\/p>\n

Are you ready for students? This is the driving focus around the learning communities. We are interested in not giving us a plan but asking us to be catalysts for a plan on our campus.<\/p>\n

Opening Discussion<\/strong>
\nWhat is BEdA’s role in pathways on your campus?
\nHow is it going?
\nWhat are you learning?<\/p>\n

We have advising modules that help instructors understand what students need for each pathway. Pathways (GED, HS21+, Vocational, etc.). I am learning that after talking to others at the table, that I need to take a closer look at what we are doing on my campus. I think we are on track but I need to research more into what we are doing. Gretchen called this a huge and dynamic process.<\/p>\n
