Celebrate Learning Week – Looking into the Future: Hybridity and Technology

Tuesday, May 10 | 10am - 12pm

The pandemic pushed faculties and students into a world of teaching and learning that increasingly weaves online and in-person learning and re-envisions the needs for the use of learning technologies. Please join our panelists from the Faculty of Land and Food Systems, Faculty of Medicine, and Faculty of Education to explore the possible directions of designing for learning in terms of the hybridization of courses and technology use. Our panelists bring their unique views and specific needs (e.g. large vs small courses, professional training and practice, pedagogical considerations) from these Faculties. We also invite the audience to join in the discussion with their perspectives, questions, and commentaries.

This event is being offered by the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology – register for this event on the CTLT website via the button below.
