Inclusivity: Awakening, Awareness, and Action

Posted by Centre for Learning and Teaching on September 16, 2019 in General Announcements

Studio Course in Teaching and Learning​​​

The Centre for Learning and Teaching offers Studio Courses for faculty members that are interested in exploring an aspect of teaching and learning in greater depth than in an introductory workshop. Studio Course participants meet for approximately 8 hours during the semester, and will emerge from these courses having ​embarked on a project of meaning and substance.  The next course will focus on​ “Diversity and inclusivity”​ and will be held on the Truro Campus

Inclusivity: Awakening, Awareness, and Action​​​​​

“Diversity and inclusivity”​ become a commonly used phrase, but how deeply do we understand these words?  In this course, through active, peer, and reflective learning activities, we will awaken our own interpretations of “diversity” and “inclusivity” and begin to apply our understandings to our life and work at Dal. This course is an excellent pre-cursor to a second studio course being offered in another term, wherein we will dig deeply into applying inclusivity to our teaching practices. Both faculty and staff are invited to engage in this offering.

Time and Location

All classes are face-to-face on the Truro campus, and will not be video enabled. Classes will be held every other Friday, beginning September 20th, from 10:00am-12:00pm in the Haley Boardroom 112.

Dates​

Participants must be able to commit to attending all classes: Sept. 20, Oct. 4, Oct. 18, Nov. 1, Nov. 15, Nov. 22.
