Description
Join us for a campus-wide Coffee and Continental Breakfast exploring how Indigenous Learning Circles can enhance teaching and learning in university classrooms. Drawing on Indigenous pedagogies and community-based approaches to knowledge sharing, this workshop will introduce participants to the philosophy and practices of Learning Circles—spaces that emphasize respect, reciprocity, and relational learning. Participants will engage in experiential learning to understand circle facilitation, reflect on strategies for including circles in classroom spaces, and build connections with colleagues interested in culturally inclusive pedagogies.
