Overview

The Spring Institute 2019 (May 21 – 24, 2019) is an opportunity to network with UBC colleagues and to share practices, research, and experiences around teaching, learning, and technology.

Call for Contributions

Embracing Creativity & Risk Taking

“In a world characterized by complex societal challenges and heightened public expectations, broad-based innovation is imperative.” – UBC Strategic Plan, Shaping UBC’s Next Century (p. 32)

We invite proposals that demonstrate purposeful innovation in teaching practices, educational research, student services, and learning technology to support student success and experiences. The Spring Institute serves as a forum for members of the teaching and learning community to collaborate, network and engage in knowledge exchange.

Institute Facilitator Community Workshop

We are offering an 1.5 hour workshop (optional but highly encouraged) for all of our Spring Institute Facilitator on "What does good facilitation look like in educational leadership?".

As educational leaders, we are often advised to use “facilitation” skills when we share our teaching ideas and deepen learning of our colleagues. The focus of this workshop will be on facilitation skills that are used when developing others’ capacity in teaching and learning.
