What Do Instructors Have To Say About Inclusive Teaching & Learning?

UT instructors and staff are engaged in inclusive teaching and learning practices. In this section, you can read (or listen or watch) instructors and staff talk about what inclusivity means to them, and how that meaning gets translated into practice in their classrooms or their work around campus. If you're an instructor and you're wondering how inclusivity connects to your discipline, this collection of voices includes representation from every School at UT. Stay tuned for additional instructor stories added each month!
