IAP 2003 Activity


Teaching Workshop: Learning to Teach to Different Genders, Ethnicities and Cultures
Peter Dourmashkin
Thu Jan 9, 10am-12:00pm, 4-339

Single session event

One of the core values of the Institute is the notion that MIT is a place that nurtures the personal and intellectual growth of each student and staff member without the interference of intolerant or insensitive behavior based on an individual's race, gender, culture, national origin or sexual orientation. To cultivate a sensitivity of these values the Physics Department offers a training session for recitation section leaders, tutors, or any interested community members. Topics explored will include an examination of what constitutes improper or harassing behavior; the responsibilities community members have in respecting and relating to one another and strategies for fostering communication and acceptance across the diverse MIT community.
