Join us for an engaging faculty reading groups (led by Cati Hebert-Annis and Jay VanderVeen) where we will explore A Pedagogy of Kindness by Cate Denial as part of UCET’s theme of Care, Kindness, and Creativity. Part manifesto, part teaching memoir, part how-to guide, A Pedagogy of Kindness urges higher education to get aggressive about instituting kindness, which Denial distinguishes from niceness. She presents a transformative vision for teaching that emphasizes justice, trust, and belief in people.
Physical copies of the book are available for the first 4 registrants. This book is also available through the library as an ebook.
One book group already has scheduled meetings – these sessions will be held in person in the UCET classroom on Feb. 4, Mar. 4, and Apr. 8 (all Tuesdays) from 1:00 – 2:00 pm.
Can’t make these dates? A second offering of this book group will be scheduling meetings based on participant availability.
