The University of Toronto continues to identify and tag all experiential learning opportunities across our full slate of course offerings. To align with the University of Toronto typology that identifies experiential learning courses, please select the most relevant experiential learning type(s) for your project. For more information on the different types of EL, including partnership-based experiences and university-based experiences - Experiential Learning (EL) Hub. For UTSC-specific examples of these opportunities - UTSC Experiential and Global Learning (EGL) SharePoint.
This brief description may be used for the EL website and/or added to the UTSC Experiential and Global Learning SharePoint for faculty, staff and librarians to review past successful projects (500 character limit, including spaces).
UTSC’s Strategic Plan outlines a values-based approach to Inspiring Inclusive Excellence (p.14). Provide a rationale for your proposed project using this four-pronged framework and an EDIA lens. Explain how the intended experiential learning activity will: (1) address course and/or program learning outcomes; (2) enhance student learning; (3) incorporate key EL evaluation components (i.e. reflective inquiry); (4) identify and/or inform impact on our community and industry partners; (5) ensure inclusive and accessible opportunities to encourage the participation and inclusion of students with disabilities. Finally, please explain how your project will shift to remote learning should public health measures require such a return (5000 character limit, including spaces).
