Humber’s Innovative Learning is hosting its annual Part-Time Teachers’ Conference on Saturday, April 29 at the International Graduate School. This hybrid conference is for part-time faculty in Ontario colleges. There is no cost to attend this event.

Proposals are now accepted for 60-minute sessions. Please indicate if your session will be offered on-campus or hybrid (on-campus & virtually).

This year’s conference theme is: “Personalizing the Learning Journey.”

Teaching in today’s college classroom involves navigating many competing demands, particularly as we begin the transition away from pandemic-driven strategies. The conference theme encourages presenters to reflect on how we can embrace technology-enhanced teaching, consider the needs of diverse student populations, and empower students to take active roles in their education.

Presentations will focus on one or more of the following subthemes:

• Student success in transitioning learning spaces (e.g., teaching the post-pandemic student, online/hybrid/HyFlex teaching)
• Supporting achievement among diverse students (e.g., focus on accessibility, flexible learning, anti-racist approaches, decolonization)
• Instructor tool kits to support student learning (e.g., technology-enhanced teaching, hands-on learning experiences, methods for developing practical skills)

Proposals will be reviewed based on the following criteria:

• Relevance of the proposal to the conference theme
• Topic connection to current practices in teaching and learning
• Plans for how attendees will be engaged in the session
• Clear session outcomes and overall clarity of the proposal

To submit a proposal, complete the PTTC 2023 CFP Application.

Deadline: Friday, March 24

Those selected will be notified by March 31.
