As a feature teaching and learning celebration duringĀ , the Dalhousie Conference on University Teaching and Learning will encourage dialogue about where weā€™ve been, and where weā€™re heading, in the higher education teaching and learning environment.Ģż What it means to know, to learn, and to teach has changed significantly over the last 20 years, yet some aspects of our collective and individual teaching and learning practices have not changed at all. And while there are many prognosticators about the future, some foretelling decline and others exploring exciting new frontiers, change is inevitable.ĢżĀ  Our choices about which pathways we will embrace is a crucial conversation for higher education.

The deadline fā€‹or proposals has been extended until Friday, February 9, 2018.
