Please join us on Thursday, October 9, for the 4th Annual Teaching and Learning Center Day on the 2nd floor of the Parnassus Campus Library. UCSF faculty, educators, staff, and students are all welcome.
TLC Day will feature free hands-on workshops on simulation, tools and technology at UCSF, and innovative uses of technology. In addition, keynote speaker Dor Abrahamson, Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Education and Director of the Embodied Design Research Laboratory at UC Berkeley, will lead a discussion on the concept of embodied design -- a pedagogical framework based on the theory that cognition is grounded in bodily experience and therefore students can develop their understanding of complex and seemingly abstract concepts through physically grounded learning activities.
