On now at North Space - "Defining the Digital: At the Intersection of Creativity and Digital Technology".
As the benefits of the creative application of digital technologies are often hidden, this exhibition will illuminate the variety of contexts and settings in which they are being used in educational practice. How has the digital encouraged new means of creative expression in the practices of design, aesthetics and coding? What affordances have evolutions in the digital realm provided for teaching and learning? Which digital skills support creativity? And which creative strategies are best suited to digital innovation? As a means to initiate dialogue, share inspiration and outline emergent thematics, Defining the Digital: At the Intersection of Creativity and Digital Technology will bring the creative digital practices of Humber faculty into the public sphere.
Featuring Humber staff & faculty members:
We will also be hosting a symposium on September 22nd as a part of this exhibition that will engage faculty, students and staff in a critical discussion on definitions of the digital contemporary.
It looks like Humber’s 2016 GCC participants are off to a great start!
When your team works together, there’s no limit to what you can achieve. If your team takes at least 100,000 steps on Sept 15, 16 or 17 you'll take home the 1st Mini Challenge trophy!
Beyond this, why not plan a team walk using GCC Trailblazer, create a Team Mini League for some extra competition and motivation, and remember to keep entering your steps regularly to see your team move up the Leaderboard.
Good luck!
The Humber Room will be open for service starting Tuesday, September 20th.
Hours of operation are Monday to Friday:

On now "Occupy Space"!
This exhibition taps into other-worldly imaginaries to address the social reality of Canadian diversity. The creators of the works featured in this exhibition move in from the margins to occupy speculative realms of popular culture – where the politics of inclusion remain contested.
For this exhibition a teaching resource guide is available for interested faculty to download from our website. This resource guide covers key themes of Afrofuturism, diversity in mass media, Canadian diversity, cultural appropriation and stereotypes, that can be broadly applied to Visual Arts and Popular Culture, Canadian History, Society and Culture, Musical Pioneers, and Indigenous Perspectives.
This resource guide can be used for both in class learning or to help facilitate an in gallery class session. To schedule a class visit for this exhibition please contact galleries@humber.ca
This exhibition is open weekdays 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. until Oct 1st, 2016.

I am pleased to announce that Mark Hanna, Associate Dean, the Business School has successfully defended his dissertation “Exploring Student Entitlement at an Ontario College”, on September 14th, 2016 at the University of Toronto.
Mark’s dissertation explored the concept of student entitlement focusing on conceptualizing student entitlement from the faculty perspective and then determining the extent to which students report entitled attitudes. This study made suggestions for practice; including the way we market to students; focusing on a transition/orientation program that would specifically address the transition from customer to student: using students’ customer orientation strategically by improving services for students; and, a review of student feedback questionnaires and the process surrounding their administration.
Mark’s thesis was supervised by Peter Dietsche, Emeritus Davis Chair in Community College Leadership. I am very proud of Mark. Completing a doctorate is a tremendous accomplishment. We look forward to Mark sharing his research findings with the Humber community.

Dean, The Business School
