Women in French: Accommodating Today's Student Angst and Access
Chairs: Cyrielle Faivre (University of Calgary) & E. Nicole Meyer (Augusta University)
This roundtable addresses questions of contemporary student access as well as existential angst in our French-speaking classrooms. Teaching has [r]evolved in ways that challenge our previous pedagogies and approaches to fostering student learning. Students have lost confidence in their future and somehow in higher education. We must (re)define our approach to this massive shift. Topics may include: neurodiversity, access and disability, depression and anxiety, as well as existential concerns and ways we have adapted or should adapt to them. Abstracts of 200-300 words in English or French welcome by October 1.
