Engaging the Whole Student: Project-Based Learning as Embodied and Inclusive Pedagogy

When faculty teach according to the Seven Essential Elements of Project-Based Learning (PBL), they bring high-impact practices into their courses. These practices foster deeper, embodied learning by engaging the whole student—heart, mind, and spirit—and tapping into different parts of their brain, identity, and being. Come hear how faculty colleagues employed PBL this fall with unscripted, “real-world” and hands-on project work.

A Student-Faculty Dialogue on Pandemic Teaching

How has your teaching experience been shifting modalities? What helped? What feedback did you receive from students? What would you need to know from students? These questions will animate this collaborative student-faculty conversation to help us better understand the connections between our pedagogies and our students’ reception of our courses. This interactive discussion will enable deep reflection of where we’ve been, but more importantly, offer creative ideas about working with each other in the Spring 2022 semester, and beyond.
