I am pleased to announce that Lisa Salem-Wiseman, Associate Dean in the Faculty of Health and Wellness, will be seconded to the Centre for Innovative Learning as special advisor to the Humber Learning Outcomes strategic initiative, beginning in January 2022.

In her role as special advisor, Lisa will lead the on-going implementation of the Humber (Institutional) Learning Outcomes (HLO) framework, with a particular focus on curriculum development, faculty resource support, and HLO assessment processes. Lisa will also work closely with the Office of Indigenous Education and Engagement (IE&E) to braid Indigenous Ways of Being, Knowing and Doing into curriculum across Humber’s programs.

Lisa brings extensive experience to this role, both in the classroom and as an academic leader. Most recently, Lisa worked with IE&E to implement a new initiative within Humber’s Early Childhood Education (ECE) program focusing on teaching students, educators and the community to co-learn from the land using Indigenous and non-Indigenous perspectives. The program is based on the guiding principles of Etuaptmumk/Two-Eyed Seeing (in the Mi'kmaq language) and reflects the interconnection of people and places by exploring ways of being, knowing and doing from Indigenous and non-Indigenous worldviews.

We are excited to have Lisa join the HLO project this January.
