Please join us for this gathering, which will provide a highly interactive forum for scholars to share innovative tools for political science education and research on the scholarship of teaching and learning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In keeping with the overall Annual Meeting theme of \u201cPromoting Pluralism,\u201d this year\u2019s TLC at APSA theme is \u201cTeaching Pluralism through Political Science Education.\u201d We perceive pluralism, in the widest possible way, to represent a diversity of ideas, experiences and identities. Teaching pluralism builds classrooms and environments that encourage students to develop a deeper understanding along with tolerance of diverse ideological thought. It looks to create communities inclusive of experiences across the spectrum of human abilities, gender identities and sexual orientations. It makes space for the identities and aspirations of members of varied ethnic, religious and linguistic communities. We are particularly interested in proposals that explore the ways in which we teach and model the principles of pluralism for the 21st century<\/p>\n<p>Registration<br \/>All participants\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/connect.apsanet.org\/apsa2021\/registration\/\">must be registered<\/a>\u00a0for the 2021 APSA Annual Meeting &amp; Exhibition in order to attend the TLC at APSA.<\/p>\n<h2>Schedule<\/h2>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 24.7069%; text-align: center;\"><strong>Time<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 75.2931%; text-align: center;\"><strong>Event<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 24.7069%;\"><strong>8:00 a.m.<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 75.2931%;\">\n<p><strong>WORKSHOP AND PANEL SESSION 1<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Workshop: Pandemic Proof Your Voter Outreach Strategy <em>(Virtual)<\/em><\/strong><br \/>Elizabeth A.
