Skule™ Lunch & Learn presents:
Re-engineering Education for a Changing Landscape:
Fostering a Path to Lifelong and Lifewide Learning
Featuring Prof. Greg Evans
Join us this month as Prof. Greg Evans discusses how U of T Engineering is redefining the teaching and practice of engineering.
Major shifts are occurring in the teaching and practice of engineering. The quest to address complex societal needs is broadening the scope of engineering to bring in practices from domains such as design, leadership, communication, education, business, sustainability, globalization and entrepreneurship.
Dr. Evans will introduce the Institute for Studies in Transdisciplinary Engineering Education and Practice (ISTEP), launched in July 2018 to meet these challenges. I will describe instructional strategies being developed to integrate transdisciplinary competencies and skills development, as well as the roles of metacognition and knowledge integration in fostering lifelong and lifewide learning.
