Welcome to the LibGuide for BCC's 9th Annual Winter Conference! This guide is a curated compilation of relevant resources that focus on the following conference themes:

1. Effective Teaching and Learning Environments

This theme focuses on the pedagogical component of higher education. This considers topics such as engaging students effectively, assessing learning, curating content for online instruction, hybrid and hyflex pedagogies, trauma-informed pedagogy, synchronous vs. asynchronous online instruction, and plagiarism.

2. Ensuring Student Success

This theme centers around services that break down barriers to ensure student success. This includes social justice initiatives supporting marginalized students, incorporating efforts to support a growth mindset and intelligent practice in instruction and support services, removing barriers to facilitate academic success, aligning services with instruction, mentoring programs, such as peer mentoring in First Year Programs or faculty mentoring of student research, addressing issues of the digital divide, and facilitating access to services.

3. Beyond Diversity and Inclusion

This theme stretches beyond traditional pedagogy. It includes strategies or frameworks that embrace decolonizing curricula, empathic teaching, restorative practices, informed care & pedagogy, culturally-responsive pedagogy, critical race praxis, fostering global citizenship across the content areas, difficult classroom discussions on race, gender, culture, and/or sexual orientation, training for culturally competent faculty and/or staff, teacher education and professional development for cultural competence, strategies and activities to integrate diversity and inclusion, and the challenges of actualizing anti-racist teaching practices.
