Join us for this interactive session exploring the power of collaborative partnerships for supporting faculty and student learning. Exemplary teaching and meaningful learning does not always happen automatically, even with our best intentions. Sometimes we must seek out the expertise of others to gain authentic tools for engaging in faculty development that can transform and renew our practices. This session will describe the work of an interdisciplinary arts and literacy research team, composed of faculty and an exemplary graduate assistant, who have united across disciplines to engage in providing arts enrichment for a community-based after school program. Through collaboration, the graduate assistant, faculty members and newly recruited undergraduate teaching teams are discovering new and powerful opportunities for learning.
