Conversation on Community Engaged Scholarship: The"Why" of our Work
Tuesday, March 10, 3:30-4:45pm
Gelman Library Room 101
Community Engaged Scholarship is increasingly transdisciplinary work,
resulting in more diverse working teams in terms of approach, epistemology,
and aims. The creators of the Community Engaged Faculty Topology (Morrison & Wagner, 2017) will present their research as a framework to reflect on our core values as engaged scholars to develop greater awareness of ourselves and understanding of others, improving our effectiveness in these collaborations.
