This interactive session focuses on an ongoing study examining the experiences of Developmental Education faculty who are allies to students who identify as LGBTQIA. Participants will collaborate with peers to navigate building bridges for students who identify as LGBTQIA and leave with resources to take back to their institutions.
The presentation will be an informed conversation. We will begin with an overview of the ongoing pilot study, showcasing the context, instrumentation, participants, and rationale. After discussing data from the pilot study, a whole group discussion about the generalizability of the results, as well as implications for practice, will be facilitated. Additional resources will be given to session attendees.
