2015 Faculty Institute on Community-Engaged Learning: Aligning Intention and Action in Community-Engaged Learning
Hosted by the Centre for Community Partnerships, University of Toronto
The Centre for Community Partnerships invites proposals for research papers to be presented at the 2015 Faculty Institute on Community-Engaged Learning at the University of Toronto, May 13, 2015.
We welcome twenty minute papers on any aspect of community-engaged teaching and learning, which may include research on community-engaged courses (qualitative, quantitative, mixed methods or other) or theoretical or conceptual papers related to the field of service-learning or community-engaged learning. Papers that speak to the Institute’s theme of “Aligning Intention and Action in Community-Engaged Learning” are particularly encouraged.
Possible topics may include:
- student learning in community-engaged learning courses
- community-engaged learning from a disciplinary perspective
- community impact of community-engaged learning courses
- the place of community-engaged learning in the university
- reflection and other pedagogical components of community-engaged courses
- social justice, diversity and community-engaged learning
- the relationship between community-engaged research and teaching
Individuals interested in presenting twenty minute papers should submit proposals of up to 300 words to Jennifer Esmail, Coordinator of Academic Service-Learning and Faculty Development at jennifer.esmail@utoronto.ca. Proposals are due by April 2, 2015 and should include a paper title and a 50-75 word biographical statement. We welcome proposals from all interested individuals regardless of institutional affiliation.
