The Library and Office of Research will once again be hosting the Emerging Practices Reading Circle for Spring Quarter. This time we’ll be discussing An Urgency of Teachers: the Work of Critical Digital Pedagogy.
This book explores the use of critical and emerging pedagogies in online and hybrid learning environments, with much of the writing growing from the authors’ work in Hybrid Pedagogy. We hope to have 8-10 faculty and/or staff members from across the campus community join us to engage in open-ended discussions about teaching and learning with technology or in tech-mediated spaces.
An Urgency of Teachers was published under a CC BY-NC 4.0 license and fully available online (linked above) for anyone who would like to read or preview it. A limited number of print copies will be provided to participants.
