Channel: Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology, University of British Columbia
Date: 02/06/2022

This panel will bring together a UBC faculty member, graduate student, and staff member, to discuss an applied research project that took place in a graduate-level seminar in Fall 2021. Applied research is one of the nine types of work-integrated learning recognized by CEWIL Canada; students participating in applied research projects solve workplace problems in partnership with community organizations or industry. Solutions to these problems are typically generated through consulting, design, community-based research, or some combination of all three.
