WHAT TO EXPECT
Each day provides an opportunity for you to consider a variety of DEI resources. We encourage participants to spend at least 10-15 minutes a day at their convenience. For those who have more time, there will be a lot of different resources to read, watch, and/or listen to and topics, terms, and questions to think or write about. That said, rather than making it a goal to cover all of the material every day, it might be advantageous to focus more on your personal journey and growth mindset as you consider the topics covered. You can always go back to delve more deeply into the materials at a later point in time. After it opens each day, the information and material in the 21-day DEI Challenge will remain on the website, so you will have access to the links in the future.
HOW TO USE THE INFORMATION
- Each day has a topic-themed “challenge.” It is a small task that we hope you will do to help apply what have learned on the topic for that day or it is materials to read, watch, or listen to in order to increase your knowledge of that topic.
- Each day features “terminology of the day” along with a definition or explanation. Try to use this terminology during the day in the Zoom room, at the end of the week at the “Town Hall,” and in conversations with friends, family, and colleagues. Work on making it a regular part of your vocabulary.
- On most days with interviews, we have scheduled 30 minutes for the interviewee to meet on Zoom. Come to the ZOOM ROOMs to chat, ask questions, or just listen.
- Explore more resources and take a “deep dive” into the topic.
- Think about the suggested “self-reflection” and further your understanding.
