The Program at a Glance
Each day of the 2021 Roundtable was committed to exploring the question of paradox with a different focus, purpose, and energy. The Program below provides a glimpse into what was on offer.
On Day 1, we come together as Learners.
This is a day for newcomers to the student-staff partnership conversation. You’ll have a chance to share your partnership work and to engage with each other’s partnership practices. You take away practical tips and techniques to help you start, progress, and expand your own partnership initiative. We encourage you to notice where the paradoxes emerge.
On Day 2, we come together as Hackers.
This day is devoted to collective problem-making and problem-solving. Through parallel hackathons, we will tackle a series of paradoxes that have long occupied the student-staff partnership community. You take away new thinking, new questions, new connections, and new actions.
On Day 3, we come together as Researchers.
This final day pushes us to identify the research questions that we think are urgent for the student-staff partnership scholarly community to answer. It also invites us to attend to tricky questions about the experiences of students and staff researching and writing together – questions about power, privilege, recognition, representation, and legacy.
Keynotes
Each day of the Roundtable will kick-off with keynote speakers who will provoke us with their unique take on our theme: The Partnership Paradox.
