Tuning In sessions offer an opportunity to share insights and help others tune into the “signal” within their own practice. We encourage work that connects theory and practice in accessible, relevant ways and projects that explore inclusion, flexibility, accessibility, and other ways of reducing the “noise” that can make learning harder for students.  See the Call for Proposals for details.

If you have any questions about the Teaching and Learning Symposium, please contact tls@utoronto.ca.

Call for Proposals closes on February 13, 2026

Tuning In: Sharing What You’ve Learned About Teaching and Learning -- 30 minutes

This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

Each presenter has approximately 20 minutes to address the purpose, design, and key takeaways of their work, followed by 10 minutes for open discussion and reflection. There will be 2 Tuning In sessions in a single hour-long session.
