In the ELI Program, faculty members in the humanities, life sciences, physical sciences, and social sciences work with colleagues to:
- Examine what equitable learning means in their courses.
- Consider course-level data disaggregated by key demographic groups, including first-generation, historically underrepresented groups, international, and gender identities.
- Develop and pilot an evidence-based change to their course.
- Assess the impact.
Foundational courses refer to courses that provide entry points into a field of study, provide foundational knowledge and skills required in a range of disciplines, or focus on advanced skills necessary for success in a discipline. The ELI Program prioritizes working with faculty who teach courses that serve a large number of Brown students, including courses with many small sections. ELI Fellows will receive a stipend of $2,500 during their participation in the program.
