Community of Practice
CCEL hosts an annual Community of Practice, facilitated by our Faculty-in-Residence. Join colleagues from across the University to learn about how you can design classroom assignments, scholarship, research, and creative activities that help you and your students to engage with the local community.
The 2024-25 Community of Practice is focused on engaged teaching and scholarship. The Community of Practice will explore foundational theories of community-engaged teaching, learning and scholarship, with a focus on providing participants with tools and resources they can use in their classrooms and in their provisional development as faculty members. Our goal is to work collaboratively to develop one of two final pieces:
- An engaged-teaching strategy, lesson or assignment
- An engaged scholarship project that the faculty member will complete.
We will also explore how to foster partnerships with community organizations, non-profit organizations, governmental agencies and local businesses. Over the course of this Community of Practice, participants will learn how to connect their teaching, research, scholarship, creative activities ands service to community-engaged theories and applied practices. We also will include a group project that will be submitted to the faculty symposium and a publication outlet at the end of the 2024-25 academic year.
