Event Date & Time
Event Description
In this session, we bring together panelists with a diverse set of experiences teaching as or with graduate students to discuss the role of graduate students in teaching, and teaching in the professional lives of graduate students. In what ways are graduate student already contributing to the teaching mission of the university? How might they? How does teaching make contributions to their overall role as disciplinary practitioners and scholars? What has been helpful for them to think about in placing teaching, and developing as teachers into the large and demanding list of tasks and responsibilities that graduate students face during their degree?
Join us for what promises to be a lively and interesting discussion.
Panelists:
Dr Glenn Deer, English Department, UBC
Dr Silvia Bartolic, Sociology, UBC
E. Jean Buckler, PhD Candidate, School of Kinesiology, UBC
Christine Sumner, PhD Candidate, Animal Welfare, UBC
