Live podcast recording!

In its inaugural miniseries, the Teach.Learn.Share podcast asked members of our community to weigh in on the connections between assessment, learning, and student well-being. The conversations centred on how to leverage learning-focused assessment practices to potentially improve students’ well-being. Join Jasmine Parent and Margo Echenberg as they record a live follow-up conversation with Student Engagement Officer Kira Smith where they discuss some of the obstacles—both personal and institutional—that might make it difficult to address students’ well-being through assessment practices.

McGill University is on land which has served and continues to serve as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. Teaching and Learning Services acknowledges and thanks the diverse Indigenous peoples whose footsteps mark this territory on which peoples of the world now gather. This land acknowledgement is shared as a starting point to provide context for further learning and action.
