The Complex Factors That Drive Students’ Sense of Belonging
An expert in student belonging and engagement in the digital environment explains the nuances of belonging, mattering and inclusion as well as how to foster well-being in higher education.
Even the most experienced faculty member can benefit from teaching advice from their peers. In this episode of the THE Campus podcast, we feature short tips from university educators around the world, creating a mini teaching community in podcast form. We also speak to David Dodick, a sessional lecturer at the University of California, Berkeley and the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto, about the arts and humanities employability myth and common mistakes he’s seen university lecturers make.
So sharpen your pencils and make sure your laptop is charged – prepare to get schooled on how to teach.
