SUMMARY:Neurodivergence, Ableism, and Inclusive Approaches to Education in Veterinary Medicine
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION: \n\nGuest Regional Teaching Academy Fellow Presenter: Dr. Naomi Nishi, Associate Dean of Culture, Community, & Accessible Care, Colorado State University, College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences\n\nIncreasing numbers of DVM students are identifying as neurodivergent, and some are being diagnosed and seeking accommodations midway through their DVM program. This often reveals within our programs how ableism is working to normalize neurotypical ways of being and learning, which can marginalize and isolate neurodivergent learners. In this session, we will discuss how neurodivergence can show up in our learning spaces and offer strategies for creating more inclusive learning environments and teaching practices for neurodivergent learners.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe WSU College of Veterinary Medicine Teaching Academy is an inclusive community of educators enhancing their teaching, career development and scholarship. The academy fosters innovative curriculum, teaching, and learning.\n\nOur weekly events are open to all college and WSU faculty, staff, graduate, and professional students.\n\nWe also offer educational training and academic career preparation opportunities to graduate students, veterinary residents, and new faculty members across the entire college through workshops, seminars, discussions, and summer programs.
