The Teaching and Learning Center and Applied Learning are pleased to announce the third session in the new weekly conversation series in preparation for remote and hybrid learning in the fall, "Sidewalk Research Project: Connecting Students to Community," on Tuesday, July 14, from noon to 1:00 p.m.

The series will look at a number of topics centered on applied learning in an online environment. A short presentation will be followed by a discussion exploring ways we can design new activities or adapt or revise current projects.

This talk, presented by Ann Emo, professor and chair of the Theater Department, will look at combining remote instruction for first-year students with hands-on experiences that are COVID-safe. Introducing the concepts of inquiry and rigor early and often can set students on the path toward lifelong learning. Using this example as a jumping-off point, participants can explore options for hands-on research in their remote classes.
