In the previous year, what new ‘steady states’ have emerged or appeared on the horizon in university teaching?
This UBC Vantage College (VC) Speaker Series Event features two invited International Scholars as well as three Vantage College (VC) faculty members, and a VC alumnus and current TA, providing a forum for learning about and reflecting on emerging practices in education one year after the initial pivot to online teaching.
Organizing by members of the VC Professional Development Committee (Dr. Alfredo Ferreira, Dr. Eva Zysk, and Dr. Sandra Zappa-Hollman), this event follows up on the previous Speaker Series Event on “Pivoting to Online Teaching” with the theme of “Evolving Adaptations”. This concept captures the (potential) normalizing of the adaptations, innovations, and other practices of the last year, including developments in practices of equity, diversity and inclusion.
