We welcome all life sciences education researchers from elementary to graduate levels, in formal and informal settings.
You are invited to submit proposals to share your work on inclusive teaching in life sciences education. This special symposium, in the spirit of inclusion, seeks representation from all levels of biology and life science teaching. This means that we are also seeking volunteers from all NABT sections who would be interested in helping to review symposium proposals.
The theme this year is based on a recent essay by S. Shukla et al. (CBE-Life Sciences Education, Summer 2022, 21:es2, 1-11) Reframing Educational Outcomes: Moving beyond Achievement Gaps.
Community Cultural Wealth focuses on assets that students bring to the classroom, whereas, Ethics of Care is based on assets that an instructor brings to develop a classroom of respect. We are interested in learning how educational research might contribute to these frameworks and how educators can seek out situations that promote individual growth and maintain a caring classroom community. We welcome data-driven education research as well as experimental strategies about these 2 asset-based frameworks to meet learning goals and student outcomes.
This is a refereed session to be presented online on March 2nd. Successful submissions will be invited to present a 20-minute talk at the symposium.
Proceedings will be available at Proceedings: Inclusive Teaching.
Please submit your completed proposal and 200 word abstract at https://nabt.wufoo.com/forms/call-for-proposals-inclusive-teaching-symposium
Your proposal must be uploaded as a WORD document. These WORD documents will be made into a PDF by the Chair of the review committee prior to submitting to the reviewers to ensure a blind review process.
The proposal submission deadline is 11:59pm Pacific Standard Time on December 22, 2022.
Blind review will take place in December/January with final selection made by early February 2023. Minor corrections to submissions can be made after acceptance.
The National Association of Biology Teachers empowers educators to provide the best possible biology and life science education for all students.
