The (Digital) Pedagogy Meet-Up will explore how to expand pedagogical practices through digital components and other methodologies for world language learning. Each meet-up will cover discussions on the implementation of alternative resources that have a potential impact in current teaching practices. The (Digital) Pedagogy Meet-Up seeks to foster a collaborative community of educators from all corners of the U of A campus as we discuss and explore the intersections of innovative technology and pedagogical practices.

The (Digital) Pedagogy Meet-Up meets at the World Languages and Digital Humanities Studio (JBHT 207). It is free to attend and open to all U of A educators (faculty, graduate and undergraduate students) with an interest in exploring digital pedagogy.
