FACCE is designed and facilitated by NIU faculty and staff to promote transformational change at NIU. It is an engaged community of faculty and instructors that addresses inclusive and equitable teaching practices, culturally affirming and sustaining pedagogies and transformation in teaching and learning.
The ACUE programs are excellent, as well. The course on Effective Teaching Practices is a year-long online course that focuses on equitable and inclusive teaching as part of what makes teaching effective. The ACUE microcredential on Inclusive Teaching for Equitable Learning is an eight-week online course that addresses implicit biases, microaggressions, imposter phenomenon, creating inclusive learning environments and designing equity-centered courses.
Unfortunately, the ACUE programs are not currently offered due to budget restrictions.
We are happy to welcome new members to the FACCE committee. If you are interested in participating, please email Jade Silva Tovar at jsilvatovar@niu.edu.
