Level of Challenge (Inclusive Teaching Series)

We know from research on specific-population institutions that high challenge, combined with high belief and high support, is key to student success. There's an inherent conflict in this idea for instructors: if everyone succeeds, is it because we set the bar too low?  And yet, don't we want everyone to succeed?  Does a high rate of Ds, Fs, and Ws indicate quality? And if we tell students that, what messages might students from historically underserved populations hear in that statistic?

Documenting how you determine the level of challenge in a course, and the processes you engage to help students reach those high goals, are important contributions to the teaching evidence in your promotion and retention materials.  In this session, instructors will chart each of those processes as we consider a variety of options for each.
