Teachers’ Lounge | Intercultural Pedagogy Now: Instructor Views

Join us for informal conversation with international TAs and instructors, discussing their pedagogical experiences and discoveries in US classrooms. What has been surprising about habits and assumptions around teaching that are prevalent at Columbia and among its undergraduates? How can the way they have learned to navigate cultural differences point the way to inclusive teaching techniques? We will pay particular attention to challenges and opportunities brought about by the pandemic.

Teachers’ Lounges are a series of informal discussions for graduate students about teaching practices and the culture of learning at Columbia. This session is the first of a series organized by the theme Intercultural Pedagogy Now. Materials from previous Teachers’ Lounge sessions are available to Columbia affiliates.

This session is in-person and facilitated by Mark Phillipson from the Center for Teaching and Learning.
