Event Description
Community-engaged pedagogy can create exciting opportunities for partnership between the community and the university, support students in contributing to meaningful outcomes of their coursework, and center spaces where community and university members can learn from each other. However, it can be hard to know if the work we want to do with communities is truly mutually beneficial and will foster lasting and sustainable impacts. Anytime you reach out to the community, whether to work with high school students, teach with the Yale Prison Education Initiative, or to support a nonprofit, there are strategies and approaches that are helpful to engage with. Come join us as we discuss how to create and maintain equitable relationships between us, our students, and broader communities.… . Our conversation will begin with insights from Paul Tipton, Eugene Higgins Professor of Physics; Ayah Nuriddin, Assistant Professor of History of Medicine; and Sophie Edelstein, Postgraduate Associate in the Critical Histories Lab. They will share their own thoughts and pedagogical practices and then invite others into the conversation. Participants are encouraged to come ready to contribute their own questions, challenges, and variations on practices related to community-engaged teaching. Light refreshments will be provided. We are committed to hosting inclusive and accessible events that allow all participants to fully engage. Please contact us at faculty.teaching@yale.edu if there are ways we can support accommodations, be aware of any dietary restrictions, or for questions about inclusion. — Event Details: https://yaleconnect.yale.edu/rsvp?id=2288542
