We're so excited to announce that Emerging Media Lab and Assistant Professor Dr. Patrick Pennefather have been awarded the 2023 CUCCIO Collaboration Award! 🎉

A prestigious award that recognizes outstanding contributions made by Canadian universities and their IT departments in fostering collaboration and driving innovation.

For the past year, collaborated with a UBC Arts-based faculty in residence in the creation of a project-based learning (PjBL) course. The newly adapted MDIA 470 continues its focus on emerging technology development. The purpose of the co-development of the course is to train students on proof-of-concept projects by learning to prototype using Agile project management methodologies.

After the course completion, some of the projects are further developed into minimum viable products with a lead faculty for research funding or implementation of technology.

What does it mean to embrace technology and integrate it into learning settings?

Dr. Patrick Pennefather shared how teaching technology in collaboration with Emerging Media Lab encourages students to challenge AI models while also maintaining their own voice
