Carrefour francophone workshop - Gabriel Ramsay & Tyson Gofton

éܳé

Les CCIPLEs offrent une structure flexible et rigoureuse qui permet aux étudiant.e.s de s’engager dans des activités expérientielles indépendantes, représentant de 30 à plus de 120 heures, tout en bénéficiant d’un cadre académique structurant. Un objectif principal est de promouvoir l’agentivité étudiante : en prenant des décisions proactives et en coconstruisant leur parcours éducatif, les étudiant.e.s développent des compétences clés telles que l’autonomie et la capacité d’adaptation. Le modèle a également montré des avantages significatifs pour les étudiant.e.s issus de milieux sous-représentés. Selon la recherche de Speirs, Riley et McCabe (2017), ces étudiant.e.s, bien que disposant de moins de capital social et culturel, ont démontré un fort engagement dans des expériences d’apprentissage qui vont au-delà des limites traditionnelles des programmes d’études. De plus, le cadre d’apprentissage et d’évaluation réflexif des CCIPLEs permet d’améliorer non seulement la compréhension qu’ont les étudiant.e.s de leur propre apprentissage, mais aussi leur capacité à l’articuler clairement.

Career Development and Experiential Learning, University of Ottawa

Trained in social work and environmental studies, my multidisciplinary approach integrates empowerment, systems thinking, and leveraging creativity—all infused with a twist of humour, empathy, and optimism. For over a decade, I have led career and experiential learning curriculum development at the University of Ottawa, enhancing CO-OP and Work-Study programs while creating new opportunities such as the In-Depth Experiential Learning Stream (IELS) and Student-Led, Individually-Created Courses (SLICCs). I also played a key role in developing the EL Framework and competency quantification methods, ensuring programs are grounded in strong pedagogy and equipping students for a rapidly evolving job market shaped by AI, economic shifts, and social change.

Senior Grants Manager, Francophonie and Official Languages, University of Ottawa

Since joining the University of Ottawa in 2022, I have worked closely with Career Development and Experiential Learning (CDEL) on the curricular integration of competency-focused, experiential learning. Key collaborations with CDEL include the development of the Experiential Learning Framework, support the implementation of In-Depth Experiential Learning Stream (IELS) and, most recently, designing strategies for scaling experiential learning in digital environments. With one foot in idealist epistemology and the other in human resources management, I take a pragmatic and pluralist approach to the question of learning, knowing and "doing-as-knowing". I'm delighted to be overseeing the pilot of the self-directed course at the University of Ottawa in collaboration with CDEL.
