Transnational Virtual Exchange for Social Justice Education
Led by Lauren Johnson and Andy Carolin
This session focuses on our collaborative project exploring the use of virtual exchange to facilitate dialogues on educational issues between students at the University of North Georgia and the University of Johannesburg. This research explores how virtual exchange supports pre-service teachers in navigating and engaging in social justice education to both enrich higher education institutions and to inform their own practice as educators.

Topic: An Undergraduate Path from Questions to Conferences: Exploration of High-Impact Practice (HIP) Undergraduate Research in the Classroom and Beyond
Speaker: Ralph Hale
Scholarship is a defining pillar of academia, aiming to gain knowledge and understanding that can be shared with scientific peers, students, and the general public. In this program we will discuss how undergraduate students can get involved in research, a High-Impact Practice (HIP) recognized by the AAC&U. In the classroom, students can turn research questions into empirical designs capable of collecting data to test hypotheses. They then can analyze and interpret results within the context of the larger field and literature. Dissemination of findings can occur inside the classroom and beyond through oral presentation, research posters, conferences, manuscript drafting, and publication. Successful implementation across a range of student expertise levels will be discussed.
