Pedagogy Series - "All Students" Discussion
12:15 PM ET

Sponsored by:

Center for Teaching, Learning and Research

On Thursday, January 25, we will engage over lunch in a more meta discussion about what counts as learning for students today. With mental health issues impacting more students as they navigate young adulthood in a precarious world, what are we seeing in our interactions with them? Where do we feel we can help them find strength and a love for life-long learning? And where do we feel unable to make a difference?

Please register for lunch by Friday January 19.
