Presenters: Dr. Suzanne Dufour, Ian Gibson

During their academic degrees, students will acquire and develop a handful of different skills almost never taught to them explicitly—the ability to collaborate, for instance, or the ability to adapt quickly to unfamiliar circumstances. So often we educators take these skills for granted, and when we do think of them, we presume that they are ancillary to the 'actual' content of our courses. In this presentation, we will consider what it might look like to give these skills their due, as well as how we might make room for students to develop and reflect upon them in our classes. This will involve looking at a case study on the implementation of a skill-development module in an academic class.
