Next week for Open Education Week KPU is proud to host Open Pedagogy expert Karen
Cangialosi for a talk on:
Bringing Open Pedagogy to Life
Open Pedagogy contextualizes learning in a larger world outside of the classroom making
education more relevant, inclusive, equitable and accessible. It enables students to
leverage open licenses in order to contribute to the knowledge commons and engage in
dialogue with the wider public; but it also supports them to take greater ownership of how
and what they learn. By prioritizing connection and community over methodology and
content, students in open pedagogy classrooms use a critical lens in their use of digital
tools for discovery, creativity and analysis. Open Pedagogy also means trusting students
and supporting especially the most marginalized to find and raise their voices, and it can
mean empowering students to be the change agents that they would like to be in the
world.
Thursday March 9, 3-4 pm (PST) online via Teams. Register by emailing
