The submission system is closed.
Theme Statement
The 2023 APSA Teaching & Learning Conference invites attendees to engage in “Re-Energizing Political Science Education: Innovations and New Opportunities” at the conference.
The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a toll on the educational experience of students and teachers, exposing and widening pre-existing inequalities in higher education. As we navigate the post-COVID world and reimagine our classrooms, what are the lessons and innovations from the pandemic that faculty, colleges, and universities can continue integrating into political science education? How can we engage students, faculty, and communities? How can we make political science fun and relevant, and rediscover the joy of teaching?
We encourage submissions that address the emergent dilemmas and challenges of the post-pandemic academic situation and explore the ways we can re-energize Political Science education.
Tracks
There are three presentation format options for the 2023 Teaching and Learning Conference: track panels, workshops, and roundtables. All track papers are presented in a collaborative environment, with materials shared in advance and all participants serving as discussants. Workshops provide participants with hands-on experience in the use of practical instructional methods that they can take with them to their home institutions. Roundtables facilitate participants to discuss and debate on a specific topic. Workshop and roundtable attendance is not determined by track, and these sessions are open to any conference attendee.
