You’re invited – to the opening reception of ‘mAPPing the Territory’. This exhibition is the culmination of a month-long project where the creative studio Department of Unusual Certainties (DoUC) mentored a group of Rexdale students from Pathways to Education, a program of Rexdale community Health Centre, in developing content for the exhibition from concept to completion.

These youth grew up online and mobile ready, but are they really thinking critically about the virtual space they inhabit and how it relates to the physical and social reality of their community? What can they learn about what equality, access and privacy mean in the virtual world vs. the real world? What location-based stories can they tell through Google, Instagram, Snapchat, etc.? By storytelling through data mapping and social media, they are envisioning their neighbourhood at the porous intersection between the physical and virtual.

RSVP HERE (bit.ly/2l8yFyi) 

Date: March 7, 2017

Time: 4-7 p.m. (remarks will begin at 4:30 p.m.) 

* Light food and refreshments will be served

This project is generously supported by Humber College and is a part of Myseum Intersections.

Myseum Intersections is an annual festival of exhibits showcasing different perspectives of the city’s natural, cultural and historic diversity.

CTL: Teacher as Coach

  • When:

Where:
North, D236

The art of teaching has transformed over the years and while we recognize it, we tend to hold onto familiar and traditional approaches that no longer fit today’s students, or effective learning strategies. No longer are we a person who passes on information, skill or even necessarily knowledge. Our focus has shifted to facilitating student learning while coaching students in diverse ways, and to support them to reach their full potential by empowering students to take ownership in their education. Join this interactive discussion on the role of “teacher as coach”.

Register online for Fri., Mar. 3, 2017, North: D236, 9:50 to 10:40 a.m.
