Reviews

The authors have created an essential resource for college instructors by bridging the gap between theory and practice. Their practical, adaptable guidance is informed by a national faculty survey and integrated with evidence from the educational literature. The book addresses why inclusive teaching matters and goes beyond classroom practices to consider inclusive institutional culture. Instructors and administrators at all types of institutions will benefit from this timely approach to a critical topic. --Jennifer Frederick, PhD, Executive Director of the Poorvu Center for Teaching and Learning, Yale University This book is a timely and extraordinarily comprehensive resource for supporting instructors who wish to engage with inclusive teaching. Every facet of what makes teaching inclusive is unpacked and brought to life with quotes and examples from real instructors across different disciplines and institutional contexts, and the reflection questions embedded within each section create a natural way for instructors to engage more deeply with the text and think about applications in their own teaching. No stone is left unturned in connecting the practices shared and the research on why and how those practices support inclusion, making this a most valuable resource for instructors at any stage in their teaching careers. --Catherine Ross, PhD, Executive Director, Center for Teaching and Learning, Columbia University This book is an invaluable resource for anyone aiming to engage in the 'ongoing process' of what inclusive instructors do. The range of faculty voices that appear throughout the book provide inspiration and confirmation - this is something faculty do across the disciplines and in many teaching contexts. The concrete advice and reflective questions have helped us - and, we are confident, will help you - to be more inclusive and intentional in teaching. We take four core lessons from this book. What do inclusive instructors do? They take responsibility for making their teaching and their curriculum inclusive. They continue to learn about both their students and teaching. They care about and for each and every student they teach. They change their teaching based on evidence about the practices that support and challenge all students to thrive. Those may seem simple, but the work of inclusive instructors is seldom easy. Take a deep breath. It's time to get to work. --Buffie Longmire-Avital and Peter Felten, Elon University
