Undisciplinary Pedagogy Series

Undisciplinary Pedagogy is the first series organised by the School of Cross-Faculty Studies (SCFS) to consider some of the themes, ideas and issues that we have been exploring and addressing within our teaching practice. These seminars take the form of theoretical discussions and practical workshops in which SCFS staff examine their own meditations on what it is to teach in an interdisciplinary and disciplinary environment. We welcome staff and students from across the university to join us in examining this most valuable of activities in all its complexity.
