The agenda for this year's SPAE Teaching Symposium is here! We hope to see you on March 28 at ASPA!
ALT SPAE Teaching Symposium, March 28, 1:00 - 5:30 at ASPA Conference
Robots and algorithms are shaping the daily lives of public administration faculty as they work to educate public servants in a time of partisan politics, incivility, and the only true constant—change. In this interactive symposium, faculty facilitators want to hear from you. The session begins with open conversations on the challenges faculty face in the academy. Three focused discussions are moderated by SPAE-member faculty. We will listen to your perspectives, challenges, and solutions. A debrief ends the day sharing recommended panels to attend, getting the most out of the conference, and what SPAE can do to support the sharing of teaching resources, so the impact and support endures. Throughout the afternoon, the symposium will underscore the importance of solidarity and empowerment
