assignedgroups.Giving our UGTAs the opportunity to reflect on their social positionalities served as a platformto discuss inclusive leadership and teaching [15, 16, 23]. For the remainder of the time, theUGTAs were asked to reflect and discuss several prompts, including: 4. In reviewing the principles of inclusive leadership, which principle would I identify as a strength and where I feel the most comfortable? 4 5. Are there specific times where I felt this was affirmed? 6. Which principle(s) would I identify as an area of growth? 7. What actions can I take to grow in this principle?The day following the workshops, all UGTAs reconvened to share

) Structure; and 7) Peer review [24].Active learning exercisesALEx or active learning activities (ALA) is an instructional method where pre-plannedactivities in class make the students put to use the content that they have just been taught. Manydifferent ALA and ALEx exist [23], [25], which are either informal or graded. The plainestversion of ALEx is regular multiple choice questions, which the students have to solve duringlectures but ALEx also comes as small written exercises, sketch drawings, group workactivities or the like. In class, the instructor presents the theory or case(s) and instruct thestudents how to answer the upcoming ALEx. Typically, the ALEx activities open for studentsubmissions only for a few minutes thus, when conducting graded
