Teaching and Learning in Challenging Times
The following is a list of resources to support us all as we navigate challenging times. From raging fires, a global pandemic, systemic oppression and marginalization of minoritized groups, and political and economic turmoil, it is important to consider how these challenges intersect with learning and teaching.
This list is not comprehensive; however, it is layered. Each link is a path to further resources. The CTL is here for you and invites you to connect with us for additional support.
