Welcome to the Scholars' Cafe! This is a new CTL initiative this fall. It's a chance to meet with other faculty over coffee, to discuss the latest in the teaching and learning literature. It's like a book club, but for journal articles.
The Scholars' Cafe will meet at 10 a.m. on the first Friday of each month, and engage in informal discussion about a selected paper from the teaching and learning literature.
This event is coordinated by the Centre for Teaching & Learning and the International Centre. It is an important part of the Connect-International Student Program, which provides a support team for new international students by creating an opportunity for students to connect with a faculty, staff or admin mentor and a peer mentor.
At this informal mix and mingle event, international students will be put in small groups to connect with a particular faculty, staff, or admin mentor.
