Teaching in Turbulent Contexts: A Faculty Panel Reflects on Principled Approaches

  • 14 October 2024
  • Gerlinger Lounge
  • Event Host: TEP, Campus partners
  • Event Type: Panel
  • Teaching Pillar: Inclusive, Engaged

Join us on October 14 from 10-11:30am in Gerlinger Lounge. Together we will take stock of the national and international contexts impacting our teaching this term, from the U.S. presidential election to ongoing conflict in the Middle East. TEP will share a set of broad principles that could be enacted across courses and disciplines, and a panel of faculty colleagues will discuss the specific ways they interpret, enact, and deepen those principles in their day-to-day teaching. All faculty and GEs welcome. 

Our panelists are: Faith Barter, assistant professor of English; Alison Gash, professor and head of political science; Michael Malek Najjar, professor of theater arts; Miguel Gualdron Ramirez, assistant professor of philosophy; & Kristin Yarris, associate professor of global studies and women’s, gender, and sexuality studies (WGSS) and head of WGSS. 

Hosted by the Division of Equity and Inclusion, College of Arts and Sciences, and UO Teaching Engagement Program.
