Come flocking to the first Graduate Student Workshop in Imaginative Education and get two days of in-depth dialogue on the theory, research and practice of Imaginative Education. — for free!
Tuesday, December 11th &
Wednesday, December 12th
9:30 to 3:30
EDB 7610
Have you heard of the Imaginative Education Research Group and wondered what it was all about, or how it might connect with your graduate work? Have you come across Kieran Egan’s books and would like to know more about this way of thinking about teaching and learning? Or would you just like to experience a different kind of learning environment than a regular course?
Kieran Egan and Mark Fettes are inviting graduate students of SFU's Faculty of Education to participate in a two day workshop, based on those they offer to practicing teachers, but with a greater focus on the theoretical underpinnings and research possibilities of this approach to education
We want to inspire you in your research endeavours to consider how learning environments can become more inclusive and exciting places, how learners can gain a deeper, more lasting, and more flexible grasp of subject matter, and how educators can develop new skills, energy, and inspiration.
Coffee/tea/juice will be available. We ask that participants bring along their own lunch. Please email our Coordinator Teresa Martin (ierg-ed@sfu.ca) and confirm your spot, or ask for more details.
Pre-requisite to attend: be enrolled in a graduate level program at SFU's Faculty of Education. Faculty Associates, FOE Sessional Instructors and Faculty members are most welcome. Members of the Centre for Imaginative Education Faculty Interest Group are also encouraged to attend. (this para added Dec.5 as clarification)
