Learn more about the session:

Tools that enable cognitive offloading (think, the calculator) have been shaping teaching, learning, and assessment for some time now, but the reality of the power of artificial intelligence tools finally entered the consciousness of educators when ChatGPT became publicly available in late 2022. This reality caused widespread panic at first, but this panic was quickly countered with calls for a systematic and intelligent exploration of how artificial intelligence can be ethically used to enhance education. Join our next Community of Practice with Dr. Bertram Gallant to discuss how we might leverage artificial intelligence to teach ethical decision-making, leveraging the teachable moment to instill academic integrity and a love of learning within our community.

A Proposal for Conscious and Reflective Innovation in the Field of Gene Editing

Many of us wished that we had a more robust understanding of the IT revolution that shaped our lives about two decades ago. We are on the cusp of a similar revolution: one that will influence the very fabric of our lives, our DNA. The genomic revolution is going to be powerful and has already marked its presence in society. With this power comes massive responsibility and the need to transform how we innovate. In this talk, Dr. Samira Kiani will highlight the observations that opened her eyes to the need for more reflective and soulful innovation in the 21st century.

The Math & Writing Centre is pleased to announce in partnership with the Centre for Urban Ecology a special edition of our Conversation Circles that will take place on multiple days in the Humber Arboretum and offer English language learners at Humber a chance to practice their listening and speaking skills and to build their vocabulary on topics related to nature, including ecology, climate change and sustainability, as well as the names and characteristics of all kinds of plants and animals.

The sessions will be co-hosted by one of our writing tutors and CUE staff and will take place in the CUE buiding in the heart of the Arboretum.

For March, we are offering four sessions all to be held from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.:

We ask students interested in joining one of the sessions to scan the QR code in the attached poster to sign up and to show up at the North Campus Math & Writing Centre on the third floor of the LRC no later than 10:30 a.m. on the day of the session. The host tutor will then walk with the students to the CUE building and set up the Nature Conversation Circle upon arrival.
