Teaching is a field that evolves as researchers, neuroscientists and practitioners find more effective ways to reach students. Yet far too many schools still use outdated, ineffective teaching and assessment methods. There is growing evidence that the teachers need to constantly seek more effective ways to help students learn and look for more creative and engaged ways to assess their learning. Best teachers keep learning. They believe in Peter Drucker’s words, “We now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change.” If you are the one who is constantly pushing yourself to learn about new research in the field of Education… this session is for you.

Great opportunities

📢 "Government, Opposition, regulators, representative bodies and think tanks should make greater use of student focus groups in their research and policy development." ✍ Baker Dearing Educational Trust chief executive Simon Connell wrote for a recent edition of FE Week about ImpactEd Group's report on the UTC programme, 'Powering the Engine of Opportunity'. 💬 Following the excellent contributions made by student focus groups to that report, Simon argues that young people ought to be respected as stakeholders in their own right and consulted directly on education reforms. #thinkUTC https://lnkd.in/gmvQrHzd

As a member of the UC San Diego community, I am thrilled to share and wholeheartedly support Chancellor Khosla's initiative for in empowering our undocumented students. Resilience and Inspiration: Our undocumented Tritons are relentless advocates for change. Their resilience in the face of challenges is not just commendable but also deeply inspiring. They are the embodiment of the strength and determination that characterizes our campus community. Opportunity For All Initiative: Recent developments around the O4All initiative and UC Board of Regents' decisions highlight the difficulties faced by our undocumented students. Despite hurdles in implementing Regents Policy 4407, UC San Diego’s dedication to these students remains unwavering. Expanding Opportunities: Starting Spring 2024, the University of California is set to broaden experiential learning for non-DACA, AB 540 undocumented students. UC San Diego’s Undocumented Student Services (USS) will enhance the PACE Fellowship program, ensuring more students benefit from educational and professional opportunities. PACE Fellowship Program: This flagship initiative by USS is a game-changer. It provides a comprehensive package of mentorship, professional development, and financial support to eligible students. This year, thanks to additional funding, even more students will embark on this transformative journey. Get Involved: If you know someone who could benefit from the PACE Fellowship, encourage them to apply before May 17, 2024. Also, consider becoming a mentor or a host through this program. Your involvement can make a significant difference! Collective Responsibility: Our commitment to supporting undocumented students goes beyond programs and policies. It’s about building an inclusive community where every Triton, regardless of their status, feels valued and supported. #UCSanDiego #TritonPride #OpportunityForAll #InclusiveExcellence #PACEFellowship
