A BaCE Synergy Session: A Journey of Aesthetic Expression through Diverse Responsive Engagement and a Gallery Walk of Reflection

  • Date: Wednesday, April 13
  • Time: Noon–1 p.m.
  • Location: Zoom
  • Facilitator: Connie Nguyen-Truong
  • This is a Group 4 workshop for Vancouver participants
  • Register online

In this safe and brave community space, BaCE participants are encouraged to attend and just be. In the Popular Education Model, a tenet is that learning occurs using heads (cognitive), hearts (affective), and bodies (psychomotor). Participants will be encouraged to engage in social learning/artistic modalities/activities, share their aesthetic expression, reflect, and be in community with one another. Examples will be provided on use of diverse modalities in engagement in research, scholarship, and teaching.
