Get a glimpse of past Teaching and Learning Conferences.
The 2020 APSA Teaching & Learning Conference theme was “Teaching to Empower Students.” As students encounter an often tumultuous reality that includes an evolving academy, uncertain job markets, and an increasingly contentious political sphere, how can we empower them to thrive in their educational and individual pursuits and ensure that they are prepared to solve tomorrow’s problems? Specifically, what teaching and learning strategies can we employ to build the skills and confidence our students will need?
The 2019 Joint TLC was a collaboration between APSA, the Political Studies Association (PSA), the British International Studies Association (BISA), and the European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR). It took place in Brighton, England from June 17-19, 2019. The conference aimed to provide a forum in which political science educators from different countries and contexts could come together to explore these challenges and share their experiences and teaching practices
