The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning, in partnership with the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and the Office of Disability Services, is thrilled to announce our keynote speaker for this year’s Conference on Innovative Teaching and Student Success, Dr. Mays Imad. Dr. Imad will present during day 1 of the conference, on August 14. She will also be presenting a workshop on day 2 of the conference, August 15.

Keynote Session: “Toward a Reparative Humanism in Higher Education”

When we are confronted with intersecting crises, how do institutions balance their mission of education with the fact that many of their students and employees are experiencing chronic, if not traumatic, levels of stress and burnout? Dr. Imad explains the concept of “reparative humanism,” and how this new ethic of care might influence our work in higher education moving forward. Participants will be invited to engage with the questions: what does it mean to be human in the academy, to grow and heal, to succeed and thrive, in the aftermath of collective trauma? How might we cultivate forward-looking learning spaces and institutions that address not only current challenges but also past injustices – and that allow all students and employees, regardless of their challenges and backgrounds, to thrive and contribute to the wellbeing of others?

Chapman's Conference on Innovative Teaching and Student Success is coming this summer!

Balancing Rigor and Compassion: Supporting Students on Their Path to Greatness

College is meant to be a time for young people to explore, mature, and become “inquiring, ethical, and productive global citizens.” To facilitate such development, many scholars argue that educators must address the entirety of students’ developmental needs (i.e., psychological, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual), not just their cognitive-academic growth needs. Doing so today may require faculty to be more flexible and compassionate than ever before. But how do we maintain academic rigor and course integrity while making appropriate and timely accommodations for the range of student needs in any given classroom?

Mark your calendar and join us for what promises to be an invigorating opportunity to explore, discuss, disentangle, and reflect on the changing role and expectations of the professoriate.

Monday, August 14 & Tuesday, August 15, 9am-1pm

Wednesday, August 16, 12pm-3pm plus a special Rejuvenation Session, 3-4pm

Sponsored by:

The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning, The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and The Office of Disability Services
