    Developing a Framework for Scaffolding Effective Learning in STEM

    What would it look like and feel like if study techniques were embedded in the fabric of your course? Threaded from learning objective to assessment? Designed with mastery in mind? Let’s explore these questions together using Bloom’s Taxonomy, scaffolding, and our collective knowledge as tools. Gabriel Angrand, Assistant Director, Office of Academic Resources at Haverford College, will present a framework for helping students effectively engage in our courses.

    In his prints, sculptures, and films, multi-disciplinary artist Dario Robleto incorporates a deep fascination with science, history, sound, medicine, and human empathy. His 2024 film, “Ancient Beacons Long for Notice,” is currently installed at the Middlebury College Museum of Art in the exhibit, “An Invitation to Awe.” He will join Guest Curator Katy Smith Abbott in conversation, as they explore Robleto’s conviction that “awe is a courtship with the unknown.”

  • Firebrands of Anti-Modernity: Populist Elitism in the United States and the Russian Federation

    Recent years have witnessed a growing affinity between radicalized right-wing movements in the United States and Russia, countries that have often viewed each other as intractable foes. This lecture will examine ethnonationalist movements and anti-globalist opinion-makers in both countries, with particular attention to justifications for the 2022 invasion of Ukraine and attitudes to Christian nationalism, LGBTQ+ identities, race, and performative identity.
