DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join the Minds That Matter Colloquium\, sponsored by the Pew Faculty Teaching and Learning Center&rsquo\;s Pace Initiative.\n\n\n\nThis three-session faculty cohort will explore how common mental health diagnoses and learning differences&mdash\;such as depression\, anxiety\, ADHD\, and autism&mdash\;can impact student learning and performance. Through this collaborative experience\, participants will gain insights and practical strategies for supporting all learners more effectively.\n\n\n\nGrounded in the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL)\, the colloquium integrates online presentations with one monthly hybrid discussion session. These live discussions will focus on applying UDL-informed approaches\, sharing experiences\, and engaging in Q&amp\;A.\n\n\n\nDesigned as a short course using a flipped classroom model within Blackboard\, this series offers an opportunity to deepen your understanding of inclusive pedagogy and the ways UDL can enhance accessibility and reduce the need for individualized accommodations&mdash\;benefiting all students. Each month participants will watch 1 video\, and attend 1 discussion group\, which will be held in person with a zoom option.\n\n\n\nParticipation in the Minds That Matter Colloquium provides a collegial space to reflect\, learn\, and collaborate with fellow faculty committed to creating more inclusive learning environments. Upon completion\, participants will have the opportunity to earn a Digital Badge.\n\n\n\nPlease register\:   \n\n\n\nScheduled hybrid discussion will occur\:\n\n\n\n\n\n	1\:00-2\:00\: December 1\, 2025 - Depression/Anxiety - Mary Bower Russa\, Zoom/Zumberge 3068\n\n	1\:00-2\:00\: January 26\, 2026 - ADHD - Monica Harris\, Zoom/DeVos 201A\n\n	1\:00-2\:00\: February 23\, 2026 - Autism - Jamie Owen- De Schryver\, Zoom/Zumberge 3068\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse duration is November 15\, 2025- February 23\, 2026.
