Teaching, Learning, and Scholarship in HoustonApril 30, 2012
Dear Colleagues,
We look forward to seeing you in Houston! The Teaching, Learning, and Scholarship Knowledge Community (TLS KC) has been busy in preparation for the conference and we are sure you’ll find much of interest there.
We hope to see you at the TLS KC Update (Tuesday, May 29, 1:15-2:00pm) and the TLS KC Networking Reception (Monday, May 28, 5:00-7:00pm), where we will share our latest activities and future projects – and spend valuable time getting to know each other better. We invite you to join us in the TLS Networking Center, where you’ll find open meetings on such topics as facilitating research, exploring complex and controversial topics in the field, and enhancing learning.
TLS has grown over the last few years, both in numbers and in focus. We continue to refine long-standing projects (such as Theory Connections and Accessing Best Practices in Internationalization) and take on new activities (such as an e-publication on Curriculum Integration of Education Abroad, a database of research on international students, and an upcoming exploration of assessment of international initiatives). Come join us and learn more about these – and how you can learn from and contribute to this work.
Thank you for your commitment to our work.
Warmly,
David Shallenberger
2012 TLS KC Chair...
