Dalhousie Conference on University Teaching and Learning

Posted by Centre for Learning and Teaching on April 11, 2018 in General Announcements

It is with great excitement that we invite you to join us at the 22nd annual
Dalhousie Conference on Teaching and Learning, sponsored by the Centre for Learning and Teaching.  Each year the conference aims to promote the importance of university teaching and learning among faculty, staff, and graduate students.  It is both a showcase for current research and an opportunity to foster new projects. 

This year’s theme, “Exploring the Future(s) of Higher Education: Supporting Inclusive Teaching Excellence.”  The conference will take place on May 2nd and 3rd in the Rowe Management Building.

What are our visions for the future of higher education and how will we bring them to fruition?  How do we prepare students for a future we cannot possibly fully envision?  What is the role of our educational institutions in helping students to create the world they want to live in?
