Reimagine Learning and Education in our Communities Challenge

By Jessica

 

As a result of the global scale of change and disruption in 2020 (including the COVID-19 pandemic, social justice awakening, demonstrations to uphold Indigenous rights, etc. and the growing inequities within communities), Sheridan College wants to catalyze an open-discussion around the imperative to build resilience - individually and organizationally. Specifically, Sheridan College needs help to imagine a different role for learning and education through inclusive community engagement and to answer the following question: How might we collaborate within our communities to reimagine learning and education so that no one is left behind and all youth and adults can realize their full potential?

·         What will you do: Participate in the Ideation stage of the challenge and share your innovative ideas to help Sheridan College answer the question: How might we collaborate within our communities to reimagine learning and education so that no one is left behind and all youth and adults can realize their full potential?

·         When: Upload your submissions before March 31, 2021

·         Why: Have your voices heard, access tons of resources and win up to $10,000 with your team!

·         Who: Open to Canadian citizens and individuals residing in Canada.

·         How: Register on the platform and participate with a team of 2 to 5 people.
