Students tend to disengage from their learning or classroom activities when they do not feel included or do not see the relevance of the curriculum to their lives. Thus establishing an inclusive learning environment is critical to students' course success. This pr-conference workshop covers six steps to an inclusive face-to-face classroom, the elements to craft an inclusive syllabus, the application of ethics of care to teaching,a nd four ways to reduce barriers to learning in an online classroom. The workshop concludes with several alternative ways to assess student learning. Throughout the workshop, participants will engage in individual reflective writing and small group discussion.

Understanding data from an equity perspective improves our ability to recruit and retain a diverse student population that reflects our community. In this interactive workshop, participants will explore data related to our student population in New Mexico before and as they enter higher education. We will also examine data underlying community conditions that elevate and necessitate thinking differently about strategies to enhance student success. Through a series of activities, participants will answer (1) what the potential needs of our students are, (2) what defines student success, and (3) what strategies and solutions might help students enroll and succeed in college and consequently lead to retention and degree completion.

The Accreditation Roundtable is an opportunity for New Mexico higher education institutions to discuss and share experiences and insights about the Higher Learning Commission’s (HLC) accreditation processes. It is in the state’s best interest for all higher education institutions in New Mexico to navigate the HLC Pathways successfully; NM institutions can, and should, work collaboratively to support each other in this process. This roundtable will focus on developing clarity about HLC accreditation best practices and lessons learned through our collective institutional experiences.
