Equity & Humanizing Your Course: The Liquid Syllabus
3 minute video overview: https://youtu.be/90BmvCuXMoI.  "Humanized online teaching practices support the affective dimensions of student learning. Many students who enroll in online courses, particularly those from minoritized backgrounds, do not successfully log in and complete the first week successfully. Weeks 0-1 comprise a high opportunity zone for increasing the percentage of students who succeed online... An equity-minded strategy [for overcoming] these barriers is to transform your syllabus into a Liquid Syllabus... A Liquid Syllabus is a mobile-friendly, public website with a friendly welcome video that is written with inclusive, validating language" (Michelle Pacansky-Brock). Come for an overview of the Liquid Syllabus and then stick around to make one yourself.  The subsequent "hands on" activity (for at least the first 20 participants; register at https://forms.gle/fwwgGTJTmi245uoq5) requires having or creating a google account and access to an internet connected computer.
