In what ways can we think about risk beyond the usual language of innovation and courage?
How might risk intersect with ideas of failure, vulnerability, or uncertainty? Can some colleagues or students take greater risks than others? Who is afforded safety, protection, or grace — and who is not? What emerges when we take an intersectional lens to the people who engage in SoTL?
Reflecting on issues raised in previous sessions, our speakers will invite participants to interrogate the uneven terrain of risk and examine how positionality shapes what is possible — and what is not — within SoTL inquiry.
