    What are Teaching Talks?

    Join us for an hour of your day to connect with your colleagues. These sessions serve as a springboard for discussions around a topic related to teaching and learning but really give you the chance to share the success and challenges you are facing in our new teaching reality. Each session has a topical theme but is shaped by the participants’ discussion, needs, and interests.

    The thematic focus for this particular session is localized learning and service learning.

    Objectives are to discuss:

    • supporting activities that connect students to their place(s)
    • facilitating student-to-student connection on community projects, near and far
    • creating assignments in experiential learning
    • designing assessments of community projects
