This will occur through a series of Experiential Learning Convenings and the development of a pedagogical toolkit and video. Two intensive Field Trip courses will also be launched, giving students the opportunity to have transformative learning experiences outside of the traditional classroom setting, while providing a model for community-based experiential learning within the local and global context.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Internship toolkit for students with disabilities in technical programs<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><strong>Catherine Fichten (Adaptech Research Network, Psychology)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Students with disabilities face unique challenges during internships that are an integral component of their professional training. A successful internship can hinge on several factors, including an inclusive environment and access to accommodations. The aim of the project is to facilitate the internship experiences of students with disabilities (e.g., sensory, motor or organic impairments, learning disabilities, neurological and\/or mental health disorders) enrolled in Dawson career programs by creating a toolkit of effective strategies that reflect the views of students, internship supervisors and adapted services counsellors regarding internship needs, barriers and facilitators.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Developing a Database of Digital Characters for 3D Animation &amp; CGI Students <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><strong>Charles Le Guen (3D Animation &amp; Computer Generated Imagery)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The goal of this project is to create a database of digital characters as a digital resource for students studying 3D Animation and Computer Generated Imagery.
