Call for Proposals
The Call for Proposals for the 2024 Digital Pedagogy Institute (DPI) is now
open. At this year’s DPI, our goal is to create a virtual space that allows
participants to explore diverse approaches to digital pedagogy from a variety of
perspectives, including those of undergraduate/graduate students, faculty,
librarians, educational developers, and technologists.
Our streams for this year’s conference include:
A. Critical Ideologies and Digital Pedagogy: How do we question and
challenge dominant beliefs and practices in the field of Digital Pedagogy? What
underlying approaches and questions should we engage with more deeply? How can
our pedagogical practices help support new educational priorities and social
change?
B. Digital (de)colonialism: How have digital pedagogy techniques and
tools helped instructors and students address anti-racist and decolonization
practices in their curriculum and research? What are the challenges and
opportunities? Do you have any best practices to share?
C. Inclusivity, Accessibility, and Digital Pedagogy: Issues related
to inclusivity and accessibility are at the forefront of Digital Pedagogy. What
barriers have you encountered in your research and practice? How have you
resolved them? What barriers remain? This is an opportunity to reflect on and
share frameworks and best practices that have helped to reduce pedagogical
barriers and integrate digital pedagogy approaches.
D. Sustainability, Renewability, and Environmental Costs in the
digital sphere: Digital pedagogy is not immune to environmental critique. There
are environmental impacts associated with generating the power and equipment
needed to support digital initiatives. How should we reconcile the benefits of
digital pedagogy with its environmental costs? Can digital pedagogy proponents
be good environmental stewards?
E. Digital Pedagogy and the Post-Truth society: It is becoming
increasingly difficult to navigate what is real and what is true. How can
Digital Pedagogy help instructors and students to navigate issues related to
digital literacy, data ethics, artificial intelligence, social media influences,
etc.
F. Digital Pedagogy and Emerging Technologies: This new stream
delves into the dynamic intersection of digital pedagogy and emerging
technologies in higher education. It focuses on how digital tools and innovative
technologies like artificial intelligence, big data, and immersive technologies
(virtual reality, augmented reality, etc.) are reshaping teaching and learning
experiences. The discussions will cover strategies for integrating these
technologies into academic curricula, impacts and implications, and challenges
of ensuring equitable access and ethical use.

Presentations - 20 minute synchronous sessions presenting papers or
presentations on projects, initiatives, and/or case studies related to one of
