3rd International Conference

Issues Around Pedagogy: Teaching-Learning Strategies in Arts & Humanities for the Twenty First Century

19-20 February 2025

Organised by

Faculty of Arts, University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh

 

In the recent academic discourses the issue of relevant and effective pedagogy has turned to be a prominent point of concern among the teachers and researchers. Experts in various disciplines of Arts and Humanities are also in search for more effective and appropriate teaching-learning strategy or methodology with a view to improving their academic culture and producing more competent graduates. One of the predominant characteristics of the current pedagogy in Arts & Humanities in general is Interdisciplinarity; every discipline now tends to accommodate insights, ideas, theories and terminologies of other disciplines. There is a definitive paradigm shift in our teaching-learning culture at present, and this is visibly manifest in the recent syllabi and curricula of various disciplines within the Faculty of Arts. Conventional pedagogic mode is now understood to be a failure in negotiating with the changes in academia and the world. The advanced technologies have posed formidable challenges in front of the academicians who try to cling to the older format of teaching. With the emergence of Artificial Intelligence things have become even more complicated than ever, as it has brought new dangers as well as new possibilities. 

On this note, the Faculty of Arts, Rajshahi University, is going to arrange its Third International Conference on Issues Around Pedagogy: Teaching-Learning Strategies in Arts & Humanities for the Twenty First Century during 19-20 February 2025. This two-day event envisions a vibrant academic congregation with the presence of those who are interested in engaging with the debates and discussions regarding the sort of changes and innovations, theories and approaches we need in our regular pedagogic practices. We invite proposals for individual papers from teachers and researchers belonging to diverse disciplines of Arts and Humanities, and they may choose their presentation topics from the following broad areas:

  • Pedagogy in the era of Artificial Intelligence
