Institutional and Classroom Contexts: Using Data & Tools to Identify Equity Gaps introduces participants to ways they can leverage a range of tools and data to better serve UNLV students.

Join us for our five-part workshop series that introduces asset-based teaching—a student-centered approach that recognizes learners’ cultural knowledge, lived experiences, and community strengths as powerful resources for learning. This framework challenges deficit-based narratives and emphasizes that fostering inclusion and connection in the classroom enhances, rather than diminishes, academic rigor. Adapted from an NSF-funded professional development program created by UNLV faculty for use across Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSI's), this home-grown series—presented by UNLV faculty and the Teaching and Learning Commons—represents a unique opportunity to engage with a nationally significant model developed right here at UNLV.
