SUMMARY:Webinar | How to Create Equitable Communities of Care in Online Learning
DESCRIPTION:Creating online learning experiences that promote care (referring to a sense of compassion\, empathy\, and consideration for the well-being of others) in an equitable manner requires heightened awareness of multiple dimensions of injustice\, intentional action and adaptation. These considerations are crucial for ensuring all students have the resources\, opportunities\, and support they need to succeed and thrive in a remote learning environment. \nDuring this interactive session\, we explore the concept of “Equitable Communities of Care” and how it applies to online education. We discuss the importance of addressing the needs of all students\, regardless of their background or circumstances\, and the role of emotional and social support in creating a safe and supportive learning environment. \nWe also introduce the “Equity-Care Matrix”\, a tool for analyzing and evaluating educational practices and systems in terms of their fairness and care. You learn how to apply the matrix to your online classes and institutions and identify areas that need improvement. \nWe also introduce the concept of “Intentionally Equitable Hospitality” as an approach to moving towards socially just care in online education. We sample some concrete ideas available in the curated community building resources on OneHE/Equity-Unbound  and discuss ways of adapting them to different contexts. \nBy the end of this webinar\, you have a deeper understanding of how to create educational experiences that are supportive\, inclusive\, and considerate of the needs and perspectives of all participants and have the tools to put this into practice. By promoting care in online learning\, educators can help students build strong relationships\, feel a sense of belonging\, and become more engaged in their education. \nKey Takeaways \nAs a result of attending this interactive and engaging webinar\, participants can:\n●    Apply the Equity-Care Matrix to analyze practices in their own context and institution.\n●    Consider ways to enhance equitable community building using the lens of Intentionally Equitable Hospitality as an approach to socially just care.\n●    Find suitable community building practices to use in online teaching and be ready to adapt them as needed. \nPresenter: Dr. Maha Bali\, PhD | Professor of Practice at the Center for Learning and Teaching at the American University\, Cairo

SUMMARY:CETL & WSC Present: Creating Agendas and Taking Minutes for a More Productive Meeting
DESCRIPTION:In this CETL session\, we will explore how to take minutes in a more clear and actionable way! Setting our meetings up for success starts with the agenda and continues with recording notes that are easy to follow after the meeting is over. \nUsing a template created by the staff at the College of Graduate Nursing (CGN) and adopted by the WesternU Staff Council (WSC) to standardize meeting minutes and clearly identify clear action items\, this presentation will go through our best practices for taking minutes for more efficient (and hopefully shorter) meetings! \nBy the end of this session\, attendees will be better able to: \n\nRecognize the importance of the agenda-setter and recorder\nUnderstand how to capture and organize key ideas in discussion and how it helps meeting/team morale\nDifferentiate between discussion\, decisions\, and action items\nDescribe the flow of an action item from being added to be closed out\n\n  \nWho should attend? Any WesternU employee who host or takes notes/minutes for meetings (normally recurring) where there are action items that will need to be completed.

SUMMARY:IAMSE Webinar -Breaking Barriers for Racial/Ethnic Groups Underrepresented in the Health Professions
DESCRIPTION:  \nUnderrepresentation of Black\, Indigenous\, and people of color (BIPOC) in the health professions limits the U.S. health care system’s ability to meet the needs of people in these racial/ethnic groups. A growing body of research shows that patient-physician concordance of race\, language\, and social characteristics strengthen the patient-physician relationship through higher levels of trust and satisfaction. This webinar will describe the barriers that BIPOC persons face in pursuing health professions education\, present a framework for conceptualizing strategies for improving recruitment\, retention\, and academic success among BIPOC health professions trainees\, and describe examples of these strategies. The presentation will focus primarily on examples from medicine and the basic sciences. \n  \n  \nSpeaker:  Janet Coffman\, PhD\, University of California\, San Francisco
