الوصف: Students engaged as partners in pedagogical research can be empowered to become change agents in higher education. Students often bring unique insight, perceptions and ideas that complement faculty expertise regarding teaching practices. In this session, we will explore a partnership model that we have used to engage a team of undergraduate Science students with Science faculty and staff to create novel cancer biology pedagogy. Specifically, the undergraduate student researchers will showcase their strategies in working collaboratively to develop 1) a cancer biology teaching lab that will be implemented into the first-year Biology courses, and 2) a cancer biology workshop for public education with our community partners, Let’s Talk Science and the Windsor Cancer Research Group. In addition to promoting a deeper understanding of cancer biology and science education, we will also demonstrate how this model builds and strengthens student-faculty partnerships in Science and creates new pathways for engagement and networking of students within the community. Equipped with these transformative experiences, students are empowered to take on educational leadership roles and hence become positive change agents of higher education in Science. We will also consider mechanisms for adopting our model of student-faculty partnerships to other disciplines, thus enriching the overall teaching culture.
