November 3: The Art of Socially Just Leadership Education
V. S. Chunoo (Agricultural Leadership, Education & Communication)
V. Chunoo will describe how he teaches toward pro-social learning outcomes using a leadership learning model rooted in cultural relevance and campus climate. This interactive session will include examples and stories from his teaching and research to help participants craft socially just, equitable, and fair teaching and learning contexts across disciplines. Use this original framework as an assessment tool to identify social justice strengths and weaknesses in your own instruction.
About the Seminar Series
The Art of Teaching Lunchtime Seminar Series features inspiring faculty from across the disciplines sharing their thoughts and strategies about the art and science of teaching and learning. In the first semester (Spring 2021) we showcased CITL Faculty Fellows and some of the research they have been doing on their teaching. In the second semester (Fall 2021) we featured faculty who are early in their careers sharing tools and strategies they are still developing. In the third semester (Spring 2022) we looked at alternative approaches to teaching and learning that included social justice, game-based pedagogy, and newer approaches to assessment.
This semester (Fall 2022) we return to the theme of faculty research with exemplary presenters sharing how they are conducting research on their teaching or using research to inform their teaching. Join us on Zoom the first Thursdays of the month from 12pm-1pm as we welcome new faculty, new stories, and new ways of thinking about the art of teaching. All sessions will continue to be recorded and presenter materials gathered. For more information, or to suggest a speaker for the series, please contact: Ava Wolf at arwolf@illinois.edu.
