About Pedagogical Partnerships — A Framework

The Engaged Pedagogy Program is modeled after The Students as Learners and Teachers (SaLT) Program of the Teaching and Learning Institute (TLI) at Bryn Mawr College that implements pedagogical partnerships between students and educators to build mutual teaching and learning experiences. The Engaged Pedagogy Program is also informed by the late bell hooks' seminal teaching theory, engaged pedagogy, which offers a holistic and transformative approach to teaching and learning between students and educators. Engaged Pedagogy Partners will explore key facets of their educational identities and work together to practically create purpose and community, build expertise, and develop student-centered materials — new or revised — throughout the 13-week process.
