Facing the world: Pedagogical praxis through a postpandemic prism

Abstract

Universities are not ‘ivory towers’; they have always been engaged with the world around them. Their agile responses to the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrate their robust capacities for self-transformation. As that crisis eases, universities have fresh opportunities to consider how their curricula, pedagogies, and assessments might further be transformed to respond to the range of other crises now confronting the world. In these ways, universities demonstrate that they are crucial contributors to the transformation of students, the disciplines, the professions, and the world.
