Event Details

Celebration of work-in-progress and publications

 

The ISUP Research Fall Workshop is a dedicated event to recognize the continuous journey of educational research and scholarly work in university pedagogy. This workshop highlights not only the final published work (e.g., papers, books, book chapters, monographs) but also the essential steps involved in shaping impactful research — from initial data collection and manuscript preparation to drafting funding proposals and completing the final product. It serves as an acknowledgment of the effort, collaboration, and innovation that define the field of pedagogy and provides the platform for feedback and dialogue on works in progress.  

 

Join us for an inspiring and collaborative experience that enhances your research journey and strengthens your academic community.
