Open Pedagogy: Designing Engaging Assignments 

If you've been thinking about how to make your courses more learner-centred, participatory, and engaging for 21st century students, this workshop is for you. Innovative open teaching and learning processes, such as open pedagogy, promote learner agency, participation, co-creation of knowledge, collaboration, empowerment, and authentic engagement in real-world context with ongoing feedback. 

Description: This is Part 2 in a 2-part series of workshops. Building on the work done in the first workshop, and after a presentation on open pedagogy with guidance around mitigating student risks, participants will develop an open pedagogy assignment suited to their learning outcomes.

Objective: By the end of this workshop, participants will be equipped with tools and skills needed to enact open pedagogy in their own courses.  

What to Bring:

• Participants will need to bring your own device to use for the activities around developing open pedagogy assignments.
• Participants will need to bring your own syllabus to work from.

Format: In-Person. This workshop is designed for in-person delivery. However, if you are a University of Regina or its federated colleges member and can't make it in-person, please email open.textbooks@uregina.ca to request a Zoom link. This session will not be recorded.
