CTL Summer Playground Institutes run annually for 1-2 weeks in mid-May. We invite all Pratt colleagues to join us for a playful community to explore new practices and pedagogies. Sharing of experience is key as faculty will be asked to collaborate with interdisciplinary colleagues to test out various modalities and practices. Working together, we will build a collective resource that could be directly applied to teaching and critique practices.
2023 Summer Playground theme to be announced in March 2023!
Disclaimer: Summer Playground Institutes are playful by definition. Please apply only if you are comfortable with a more open-format and decentered approach to learning with colleagues in community.
Feedback from past participants:
“I greatly appreciate having the opportunity to improve my teaching techniques and build community with my colleagues.”
“The playground has connected me to other professors, who I may be able to collaborate with”
“This was a great experience for me. It made me a lot more empathetic to what other faculty and students may be going through.”
Past topics have included Critique as Playground, and Synchronous/Asynchronous Pedagogies.
