TLC launches fund for changemaking in the classroom

A group of UFV faculty gather around a conference table at the Teaching and Learning Centre

To celebrate UFV’s 50 years of making change, the Teaching and Learning Centre (TLC) is excited to announce the changemaking-focused Teaching Inquiries for Pedagogical Practices (TIPP) fund.

Funding is now available for UFV educators

Are you interested in exploring changemaking in your teaching practice? Curious about the impact of an innovation you are trying in your classes? Do you have questions about how your pedagogical approaches can advance sustainability? Are you interested in exploring community-based experiences that can enhance your teaching in the future?

The fund is dedicated to supporting action-oriented projects, decolonized, Indigenized and equity-focused projects, sustainability projects, and projects that address complex real-world challenges through creative problem-solving.

This year’s TIPP fund is a wonderful opportunity for educators who are committed to supporting Changemaking education at UFV. This fund will allow promotion of informal inquiry into practice and facilitate rich conversations about how to inspire students to become changemakers through their education experiences.
