Experiencing Educational Development
This course takes an experiential, inquiry-based, collaborative approach to learning about educational development. You will have the opportunity to experience educational development with your peers. You will choose what you want to focus on to support teaching and learning at York University, and will collaboratively design and implement different forms of support throughout the academic year. Synchronous class sessions throughout the year will engage you in activities to support your inquiry-based process, analysis, and reflection, as well as offer different lenses and facets of educational development. Your educational development artistry will shine during the Supporting Teaching At York (STAY) Symposium where you will engage all graduate student participants in active learning strategies to provoke dialogue and reflection related to the question that grounds your area of focus for supporting teaching and learning at York.
The course will take place during the fall-winter semester (September to April) and consist of four 2-hour synchronous sessions, two check-ins, and the Supporting Teaching At York (STAY) Symposium. Below are more details!
