The form also implemented bestpractices through (a) question design focusing on student learning opportunities andexperiences and (b) statistical analyses addressing potential negative biases that mayemerge in the data.

From the analysis, four themes were identified: (a) Counter-storytelling, (b)Structural Determinism (c) Language Origins, and (d) Community Cultural- Navigational,Aspirational, Social, and Familial Capital. Two emerging themes identified were Arrebatos andNepantla; and Hidden Curriculum. From the findings, a collective narrative was generated byweaving the stories and experiences of the authors. From the narrative, we conclude withrecommendations for future faculty development programs as they consider faculties’ non-Monolithic backgrounds

A set of inclusive teaching standards (I-standards) was developed collaboratively within the department, incorporating principles fromthe UDL framework, best practices for inclusive teaching from the literature, and the strengthbased approach on neurodiversity [8]. Peer observers use the I-standards to evaluate the syllabus,course materials and teaching performance and provide a set of recommendations to theinstructors with the goal of enhancing accessibility, flexibility, and engagement of students withdiverse learning preferences. The observation process includes the following aspects: a)students’ interaction; b) use of media/whiteboard; c) student-faculty engagement, d) achievementof learning objectives. The

In the discussion, webuild recommendations for collaborative professional development of faculty and discuss nextsteps.We draw on the literature of professional learning and instructor development, which purportsthe following tenets of effective practice: a) professional development should continue over timeto create change [3], b) professional development should build on the lived experiences offaculty learners [4], and c) professional development should be reflective in nature [5] . Ourcurriculum design features a spiral introduction of materials [6] described in the literature asreviewing concepts over time with greater depth at each iteration [7].

The grant budget underestimated the time required by the faculty. b) The powerdifferential between the faculty Co-PIs and administrators could hinder the progress. This is especially true when there are several tenure-track or tenured faculty without any administrative experience serving as Co-PIs. The faculty can certainly

However, perceived barriers (especially time) frequently limit actual, personal change.We have developed a teaching pyramid that categorizes teaching levels by competence
