The Office of Research & Innovation and the Humber Press invite you to read the inaugural issue of SPARK: Humber's Research & Innovation Quarterly.

SPARK answers the question: How can we capture not only the breadth of the incredible research we do here at Humber but also the feeling of discovering the perfect research area to explore?

Issue 1 of SPARK is devoted to our rock star researchers, students, and industry partners. It highlights the value of conducting research at Humber, a STEAMS-based education, impactful COVID-19 research projects, and offers tips on how to craft powerful data stories from data. 

Read the full experience: SPARK: Humber's Research & Innovation Quarterly.

The Teaching in a Digital World Certificate (TDWC) program is designed to meet the needs of a diverse group of learners with varying degrees of teaching experience in the online and/or hybrid environment. While teaching in an online environment shares many characteristics with face-to-face teaching, it is a fundamentally different educational experience for instructors and students. The certificate is designed to develop essential online teaching competencies and engage participants as a learner, facilitator, and beginner developer.

TDWC is offered online during the Fall semester.

Note: Registration is restricted to current Humber faculty only. View the attached flyer for additional information.

The Inclusive Curricular Design Certificate (ICDC) explores how the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework can guide the creation of robust and accessible learning experiences for all students. The principles of UDL are founded in equity, collaboration, flexibility and accountability, and encourage a proactive, skill-building approach to course design that fosters the development of expert learners. Participants will apply these principles to ensure that the range of student diversities, abilities, and needs are met through a number of teaching and learning strategies.

ICDC is offered online during the Fall semester.

Note: Registration is restricted to current Humber faculty with at least one year of experiene teaching in post-secondary. View the attached flyer for additional information.
