The University of Guelph is looking to hire instructors with a passion for teaching and the academic knowledge and experience to facilitate the online continuing education Certificate in Knowledge Mobilization. The selected candidate(s) will join our existing team of instructors to facilitate one or many of the courses of the Certificate over 2021-2022 (with possibility of extension).
Canadian postsecondary institutions are under growing pressure to adapt and innovate approaches to teaching and learning. Many instructors are integrating community engaged teaching and learning (CETL) across a range of course levels and types. CETL courses ensure attention to critical learning outcomes for students as well as meaningful community collaboration and action (Morton, Varghese, & Thomson, unpublished manuscript).
Congratulations to Dr. Melissa Tanti, CESI Community Engaged Learning (CETL) Coordinator, who has been awarded a SSHRC postdoctoral fellowship to write a new book, Transnational Experiments.
