Patricia talks about her experience flipping the classroom model- taking students out of the classroom and into the community. Observing and discussing FIRST, and then bringing in theory #LINK2018

[Ryerson ECS MA Alumni Association @ecsmaaa]

Patricia discusses the importance of understanding the culture of our students and becoming a part of their community (especially when it’s different from our own)- “I had to learn to let my students teach me” #LINK2018

4 tips from one of our dissemination panelists - 1. Present at grad conferences. 2. Keep presenting. 3. Your end goal of research should include a publishable work. 4. Consider authorship- give credit where credit is due. #LINK2018
