Stanford is thinking broadly about how we will best educate students in the 21st century.
Through a series of events and initiatives called The Year of Learning, the campus community generated a wide-ranging discussion and debate about the future of teaching and learning at Stanford—and beyond.
The Year of Learning programs took place in the 2015-16 academic year and included panel discussions featuring keynote speakers and exemplary instructors, learning symposia, student-centered special projects, field trips, full-day workshops, and more.
The Year of Learning is being organized by the office of the Vice Provost for Teaching and Learning in collaboration with the Graduate School of Education at Stanford. Program events will also be supported and hosted by partner organizations across the university.
THE RESILIENCE PROJECT is a resource that uses personal narratives, programming, and coaching to motivate and support students as they experience the normal academic setbacks that are part of a rigorous education. We emphasize the importance of failure in the learning process and seek to instill a sense of belonging and bravery in students to ultimately change the campus perception of failure from something to be avoided at all costs, to something essential to a meaningful education.
If you would like to talk with us about failure, setbacks, rejection, or definitions of success, please contact Adina Glickman, director of The Resilience Project at adinag@stanford.edu
The Vice Provost for Teaching and Learning's longest-running lecture series, Award-Winning Teachers on Teaching invited faculty winners of Stanford's major teaching awards to deliver a lecture on a teaching topic of their choice.
At the beginning of 2014, VPOL launched the Stanford Digital Learning Forum to engage organizations interested in the future of learning in a digital world. To facilitate strong relationships between academia and industry, the program brings together members with Stanford faculty, students and staff throughout the university who are involved in online learning initiatives. The program supports research, curriculum and platform development, course production, policy study and outreach related to online learning and digital education. In addition, the program provides an opportunity for member organizations to not only directly support our activities, but also be involved in the process of discovering the future of digital education that is unfolding at Stanford. In 2015, the Stanford Digital Learning Forum moved to the Graduate School of Education. http://mediax.stanford.edu/forums/stanford-digital-learni...
