SUMMARY:Developing a Classroom Code of Ethics: Early Semester Work for Preparing the Class for Learning and Participation - with Renée Nichole Ferguson\, Angelina LoBianco\, and Gabriela Robinson
DESCRIPTION:Developing a Classroom Code of Ethics: Early Semester Work for Preparing the Class for Learning and Participation – with Renée Nichole Ferguson\, Angelina LoBianco\, and Gabriela Robinson\n*Due to technical difficulties day-of with this session on April 30th\, we are very pleased to be able to reschedule this talk with Renée\, Angelina\, and Gabriela for May 20th – see new details below!* \nDate: Wednesday\, May 20th\, 2026 \nTime: 2:00-3:00pm (AT) / 1:00-2:00pm (ET) / 10:00-11:00am (PT) \nRegistration link \nSoTL Speaker Session Description: \nIn social work education\, one way ethics is taught is through ethical codes and solving dilemmas\, shaped by traditions that treat conflict as something to manage or analyze at a distance. This SoTL project starts from a different premise: that ethical issues are fundamentally conflicts between values\, relationships\, institutions\, and harness real-world conditions. We begin from Black feminist pedagogy and methodology and use this project to test what it means to take them seriously in both teaching and the study of teaching and learning. Developed in a social work course at Toronto Metropolitan University\, we analyzed student assignments through a students-as-partners model\, asking what becomes visible in students’ thinking\, what remains difficult to articulate\, and what becomes possible within the classroom. \nAs part of the session\, participants will learn about Black feminist pedagogy and its significance in the classroom; learn about ways to develop a SoTL project and work closely with student partners; and apply takeaways from the project to draft a code of ethics that will support them in setting a supportive tone for the class at the start of the year. \nSoTL Speakers’ Bios: \nRenée Nichole Ferguson\, PhD (she/her) is an Assistant Professor in Social Work at Toronto Metropolitan University. Her teaching and research draw on Black feminist methodology and are shaped by her professional practice in health and social service settings in Canada. \nAngelina LoBianco\, BSW\, RSW (she/her) is a graduate of Toronto Metropolitan University and a member of the research team contributing to the project. She is currently working with communities in non-profit housing and co-operative housing. As a recent graduate of the BSW program\, Angelina is thrilled to have the opportunity to explore students’ conceptions of conflict\, accountability\, and peace\, as well as the gaps in social work education. She also hopes to apply her learnings to her work with long-standing aging communities. \nGabriela Robinson (she/her) is a soon-to-be graduate of the BSW program at Toronto Metropolitan University and a member of the research team contributing to the project. Gabriela is honoured to implement her knowledge and skills to better understand students’ perspectives on conflict\, accountability\, and peace. She is particularly interested in how these concepts can inform compassionate practices and support the well-being of individuals in both clinical\, community-based settings\, and academics. She also hopes this experience will support her in expanding her career in research and deepening her engagement with meaningful practice.

SUMMARY:Inspiring Human-Centered Teaching and Learning in the Age of Generative AI
DESCRIPTION:Inspiring Human-Centered Teaching and Learning in the Age of Generative AI\nDate: Thursday\, May 21st\, 2026 \nTime: 1:00-2:30pm (AT) / 12:00-1:30pm (ET) / 9:00-13:00am (PT) \nRegistration link \nWorkshop Description: \nIn this workshop\, we will generate new teaching ideas and cultivate different conversations among participants about Generative AI in Teaching and Learning. By considering a number of teaching and learning values and principles\, participants will reflect on how they can: bring these values into their courses; center principles more deeply in their lesson planning\, teaching practice\, and relationships with students; and work together to build something new for our students or for ourselves.

SUMMARY:Dissertation Pedagogies
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation Pedagogies\nDate: Tuesday\, May 26th\, 2026 \nTime: 8:00-9:30pm (AT) / 7:00-8:30pm (ET) / 4:00-5:30pm (PT) \nRegistration link \nFacilitated by Drs. Sarah Gibbons (UofGuelph) and Tommy Mayberry (Yorkville + TFS) \nWorkshop Description and Learning Outcomes: \nResearch shows that graduate students view feedback from their supervisors and committee members as critical to their successes with theses and dissertations—and not just with the content they are writing about\, but with the actual writing and processes of writing and/as thinking as well. However\, providing effective\, relational\, and human-centred feedback on thesis and dissertation projects\, especially in our current moment of ongoing\, compounding global polycrises\, can be a challenging\, time-consuming\, and even frustrating process for faculty. \nDrawing on research from writing studies\, the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL)\, and the facilitators’ own lived experiences as dissertators who’ve become writing pedagogues and faculty developers\, this workshop is designed for faculty and instructors to: \n\ndiscuss strategies for providing effective\, relational\, human-centred and humanized feedback on their Graduate students’ thesis and dissertation projects;\nidentify approaches and tools that graduate students (and faculty and instructors!) can use to address feedback as they write\, revise\, and polish their theses and dissertations;\nbegin sharing ideas\, successes\, and failures with instructional peers on practices for thesis and dissertation pedagogies;\nre-envision taken-for-granted assumptions and traditions of the supervisor-supervisee dyad to decolonize relationships in thesis and dissertation pedagogies and approaches; and\nstretch yourself toward embodying sustainable\, responsible\, and accountable thesis and dissertation pedagogy processes and practices.\n\nThis workshop is open both to new faculty and instructors as well as to seasoned supervisors and committee members to come together as we collectively work toward embodying and sustaining effective thesis and dissertation pedagogy processes at Yorkville and Toronto Film School.
