Wed, September 24, 2014 10:15 AM - 11:45 AM IRVING K. BARBER LEARNING CENTRE. Welcome to the 2014-2015 academic year's first meeting of the Teaching and Learning for the Heart and Mind Community of Practice (CoP). The goal of our first meeting is two fold: we will revisit the history of our CoP with the guidance of Dr. Joanne Archibald (Q’um Q’um Xiiem) who will join us as a Guest speaker and one of the community's founding members; and we will revisit the goals and vision of our CoP and plan our directions for the year ahead with your contributions.
Whether you are a long-time member of the Teaching and Learning for the Heart and Mind CoP, or have never been and are interested in joining, all are welcome. Join us to share your experiences of teaching and learning through educating the heart and mind on October 24th at 10:15am in IKB 2.27 (CTLT Fraser River Room)
Facilitators: Catherine Douglas, Latika Raisinghani
