Socially Engaged Design (SED) Informed Pedagogical Consultation
C-SED provides pedagogical consultation that can match your needs with C-SED content through the curation of scaffolded material and facilitated sessions that integrate seamlessly into course learning objectives. Using C-SED’s extensive library of socially engaged design content (ex: slides, facilitation guides, videos, worksheets), we invite you to craft meaningful learning opportunities for your students.
If you are interested in exploring the integration of SED elements into your classroom, please email our Assistant Director of Experiential Learning, Claudia Cameratti-Baeza, PhD, and Director of Experiential Learning, Charlie Michaels by clicking HERE.
