Decentralized Energy & Active Learning Workshop
Open to all faculty, students, and staff. Join us on September 24th, 2:00-4:00pm, in MCDH-329 for a cross-disciplinary workshop on ‘Decentralized Energy and Active Learning’.
What do renewable energy transitions and student-centered teaching strategies possibly have in common?
An overarching goal of decentralizing authority, a deep commitment to transparency, building trust amongst participants, and an active role for supporting institutions – to name just a few possible parallels.
In this workshop, leading experts from the fields of ‘decentralized energy systems’ and ‘active learning pedagogies’ will participate in a facilitated discussion about potential synergies between their fields. Audience participation will be encouraged throughout – and a Q&A session will be held with the thought leaders.
Coffee, tea, and light snacks will be provided.
Contact any member of the research team with questions: Dr. Nick Mercer (Environmental Studies/Island Studies) at nmmercer@upei.ca, or Jehaan Cooper (Student Research Assistant) at jcooper13697@upei.ca.
