SUMMARY:Decolonization in Action: Using the 3P’s Framework to Enhance Indigenous Inclusion
DESCRIPTION:“Catcher of Dreams” by BCA student Jordan Besito\n  \nDecolonization in Action: Using the 3P’s Framework to Enhance Indigenous Inclusion\nDate: Friday\, March 22nd\, 2024 \nTime: 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. (AT) / 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. (ET) / 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. (PT) \nRegistration link \nSession Description: \nJoin us the final Friday of each month for our Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Speaker Series at Yorkville University and Toronto Film School! \nFor March 2024\, we are inviting Dr. Johanne McCarthy\, Dean of Academic Programs at Six Nations Polytechnic\, into our virtual spaces in a good way to share their work and research with “Decolonization in Action: Using the 3P’s Framework to Enhance Indigenous Inclusion.” \nReconciliation requires effort to repair unequal and unfair relationships. It is a “settling up” for injustices leading to and perpetuating the oppression of Indigenous peoples\, our languages\, cultures\, and ways of being upon our home territories. For non-Indigenous peoples now connected to this land\, this requires reflective mindfulness and recognition of hard truths about aggressive colonization and the impacts influencing the direction and scope of learning. Moving forward\, the first step to healing is bringing that mindfulness in to the relationships we establish within the classroom to empower Indigenous perspectives and belonging. This presentation introduces the 3P’s framework to enhance Indigenous inclusion and serves as a catalyst for constructive awareness and change so that participants can imagine their own roles and responsibilities for shaping an inclusive landscape. \nLearner-participants will: \n\nDemonstrate knowledge of the diverse cultural\, historical\, and social contexts that shape relationships on Turtle Island.\nUtilize reflective learning for fostering deeper connections and understanding of relationships with Indigenous communities.\nExplore the 3P’s framework as a guide for motivating inclusive behavioural change systemically.\nDiscuss the utility and applicability of this framework for individualized academic purposes and change across the organization.\n\nSoTL Speaker Bio: \nDr. Johanne McCarthy is Onondaga Nation\, Beaver Clan from the Six Nations of the Grand River Territory. She is a mother of two\, an activist for community health and wellbeing\, a Naturopathic Doctor\, and the Dean of Academic Programs at Six Nations Polytechnic\, overseeing post-secondary\, College\, University and Trades programming\, as well as lifelong learning and advancement pathways to education. \nDr. McCarthy cares deeply about healing relationships through education and professes a value for a wholistic approach to reconciliation. \nShe holds a Masters in Organizational Leadership with an ancestral purpose and mission to transform and decolonize systems and institutions for anti-oppressive and inclusive opportunities and futures. With over 23 years of experience as a front-line health care provider\, and 14 years of experience in post-secondary education\, she has become an expert at connecting with people to motivate change for healthier\, happier\, and more sustainable futures…together!

SUMMARY:“I Am Not Complaining\, I Am Letting You Know What My Needs Are”: Listening to International Students’ Complaints/Requests as Expressions of Diverse Learning Needs
DESCRIPTION:“I Am Not Complaining\, I Am Letting You Know What My Needs Are”: Listening to International Students’ Complaints/Requests as Expressions of Diverse Learning Needs\nDate: Friday\, February 23rd\, 2024 \nTime: 2:00 to 3:15 p.m. (AT) / 1:00 to 2:15 p.m. (ET) / 10:00 to 11:15 a.m. (PT) \nRegistration link \nSession Description: \nJoin us the final Friday of each month for our Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Speaker Series at Yorkville University and Toronto Film School! \nFor February 2024\, our own Professor Irene Torres-Arends (General Studies\, Yorkville University) together with Professor Michele Jacobsen (Learning Sciences\, University of Calgary) will share their research from their forthcoming article “‘I Am Not Complaining\, I Am Letting You Know What My Needs Are’: Listening to International Students’ Complaints/Requests as Expressions of Diverse Learning Needs.” \nThis study utilizes Torres-Arends’ (2023) framework to analyze the experiences of international students within the instructional and coursework context of a Canadian private university. Specifically\, we investigate how the complaints and requests made by international students to instructors can be interpreted as expressions of their learning needs. Through a qualitative content analysis of 580 students’ emails\, we identified and examined 817 requests and complaints. Analysis unveiled significant and reoccurring trends in the arguments that students used to support their requests/complaints about due dates\, resubmission and regrading of assignments\, and plagiarism. These trends underscore the importance of attentive and empathetic listening as a foundation for developing strategies that optimize international students’ transition to Canadian higher education and enhance their overall learning experiences. Our findings emphasize the need to use new approaches to capture student voices and integrate their perspectives into the design of courses and programs. We suggest innovative methods for listening to international students’ voices\, and to shape and enhance pedagogical and institutional support structures. By actively engaging international students in conversations about their learning experiences\, universities can foster more inclusive and responsive educational environments that cater to our diverse international student population’s unique needs and experiences.

SUMMARY:Visual Pedagogies: Teaching Can Be a Real Drag (Show)
DESCRIPTION:Visual Pedagogies: Teaching Can Be a Real Drag (Show)\nDate: Friday\, January 26th\, 2024 \nTime: 2:00 to 3:15 p.m. (AT) / 1:00 to 2:15 p.m. (ET) / 10:00 to 11:15 a.m. (PT) \nRegistration link \nSession Description: \nJoin us the final Friday of each month for our Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Speaker Series at Yorkville University and Toronto Film School! \nFor January 2024\, our own Dr. Tommy Mayberry (see bio above) will share their research from their award-winning chapter that explores visual pedagogies through a sincere and earnest look at their life as an academic drag queen – a life that is congruent of academic and drag cultures\, of traditional teaching and dragged-up pedagogies. In addition to screening their (unfortunately unsuccessful) audition tape for the 5th season of RuPaul’s Drag Race in this session\, Tommy will build upon this early autoethnographic foray of theirs into visual pedagogies and into teaching in drag to bring together and share an overview of the constellation of frameworks\, theories\, and ideas (from transgender visuality\, through queer phenomenology\, and to visual performance) that positions themself in their scholarship as a social justice leader with an anti-imperialist inclusive pedagogy and practice.
