Student Showcase: UN Sustainable Development Goals Open Pedagogy Fellowship (Feb 25)

In 2019, six KPU instructors participated in an Open Pedagogy Fellowship that focused on the design of “renewable” course assignments that have a larger audience, life, and impact than traditional assignments. Each of these assignments involved students developing resources that support progress towards specific sustainable development goals<https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/>. This fellowship program was developed in partnership with Montgomery College (Maryland, USA), whose faculty partnered with KPU faculty in designing these assignments. For information about the fellowship program visit: https://www.kpu.ca/open/un-sdg-fellowship During this student showcase event, hear from students enrolled in these classes and learn about how your colleagues are connecting classroom learning with the biggest challenges facing humanity. The inaugural cohort of open pedagogy fellows include Candy Ho (Educational Studies), Pamela Ip (Marketing), Jennifer Hardwick (English), Kathy Dunster (Urban Ecosystems), and Michelle Franklin (Sustainable Horticulture). The call for applications for the 2020 UN SDG Open Pedagogy Fellowship will be shared at the showcase.
