How would you define life-long learning?

Western Today staff

January 8, 2015

The Teaching-Learning Academy dialogue sessions begin next week, January 14/15. This quarter, TLA will aim to answer this year’s BIG study question: How can we reduce barriers to life-long learning across disciplines and communities? Now, doesn’t that sound like an intriguing line of inquiry to pursue? And don’t you want to be part of that pursuit? If yes, then consider attending a dialogue session winter quarter. TLA dialogues last officially for 80-minutes, but faculty and staff are welcome to stay for as long as their schedules allows. All the sessions will be held in Wilson Library 270, Learning Commons.

Winter 2015 dialogue sessions:

Wednesdays noon-1:20 p.m.: Jan. 14, 28, Feb. 11, 25, & Mar. 11
Wednesdays 2-3:20 p.m.: Jan. 14, 28, Feb. 11, 25, & Mar. 11
Thursdays noon-1:20 p.m.: Jan. 15, 29, Feb 12, 26, & Mar. 12
