SUMMARY:UBC CPD: Nawh Whu’nus’en – We See in Two Worlds: Trauma sensitive practices for collectively healing in relationship Level 1
DESCRIPTION:The Nawh Whu’nus’en – We See in Two Worlds Level 1 Workshop is based on a widely accepted understanding that trauma-sensitive practices are the basis for offering culturally-safe and respectful health services for Indigenous relatives. It draws upon two-eyed seeing models\, weaving together Indigenous ways of knowing with western trauma theory and neuroscience. The curriculum recognizes that health professionals and patients work in relationship\, and a trauma-sensitive approach can help to build respectful\, trusting relationships. Participants also reflect on their own experiences of trauma and ways to support their own wellness.

SUMMARY:Seminar | Incentivising value-based health care using patient-reported outcome measures in the English National Health Service
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Nils Gutacker\, University of York\, UK\nMany health systems seek to incentivise value-based healthcare delivery to control costs and improve population health. Dr Gutacker will reflect on the English patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) programme and how routinely collected data on patient-reported outcomes after hip and knee replacement surgery have been used by the English National Health Service (NHS) to measure\, monitor and incentivise care quality. He will present an empirical evaluation of a national PROM-based pay-for-performance (P4P) scheme that ties hospital payments to improvements in patients’ health-related quality of life. \nNils Gutacker is a Professor of Health Economics at the University of York\, UK. He is the co-director of the REAL Supply Unit\, member of the German governments’ expert council on health and care\, and a member of the NHS England Advisory Committee on Resource Allocation. He leads the Health Policy team at the Centre for Health Economics\, University of York.

This session is not open to staff\, faculty or UBC alumni. \nThis session is designed for TAs who mark qualitative assignments\, such as essays\, written responses\, and other work involving argument\, interpretation\, and critical analysis. While these types of assignments are particularly common in Arts & Humanities\, the session is relevant to TAs across disciplines who assess this kind of qualitative work. We will explore what to look for when evaluating qualitative assignments\, including how to balance objective criteria with the subjective dimensions of interpretation\, as well as practical strategies for marking consistently and fairly. The session will also focus on providing constructive\, meaningful feedback that supports student learning\, including when to provide answers or guidance and when to use questions to prompt students to think more deeply about their work.  \nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to identify key elements to look for when marking qualitative work\, apply strategies for consistent and fair marking\, and provide effective feedback that supports student learning and deeper engagement with their ideas. \nPlease register to secure your spot.\nRegister

SUMMARY:From Avoidance to Engagement: Reframing Feedback in Health Professions Education
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a half-day event in which we will examine the paradox of feedback avoidance: Why something so essential to learning remains so difficult to enact. Explore how addressing the fears that drive avoidance can move towards more authentic feedback conversations—strengthening both learner development and the culture of health professions education.\nConnect with colleagues from across the Faculty of Medicine at in-person sites throughout the province\, where breakfast and lunch will be provided. For those unable to attend in person\, the Webber Lecture will also be available remotely from 9:00 – 10:00 am.

SUMMARY:Marking for Method and Accuracy\, and Giving Effective Feedback - Online
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of TA Foundations taking place from September 14 – 18\, 2026. \nThis session is open to UBC TAs. This session is not open to staff\, faculty or UBC alumni. \nThis session is designed for TAs who mark quantitative assignments\, such as problem sets\, lab reports\, and other work involving method\, accuracy\, and scientific reasoning. While these types of assignments are particularly common in Science and Engineering\, the session is relevant to TAs across disciplines who assess this kind of work. We will explore how to align marking and feedback with the purpose of an assessment\, apply rubrics and marking guides consistently\, and distinguish between different aspects of student work when evaluating their performance. The session will also consider how to provide constructive\, actionable feedback and when it is more effective to give students a direct answer versus using questions to support their reflection and learning.  \nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to apply marking criteria consistently\, provide feedback that supports future learning\, and select appropriate approaches for guiding students through common marking and feedback challenges. \nPlease register to secure your spot.\nRegister

SUMMARY:Writing for Graduate Success: Introduction to Research Writing
DESCRIPTION:New to graduate school and want to improve your writing? Effective research writing is not just a skill; it’s a disciplinary practice shaped by the rhetorical norms\, analytical moves\, and communicative expectations of your field. Using research-informed frameworks\, examples from published studies\, and guided mini-exercises\, we break down the logic and core features of successful academic writing. Whether you’re drafting your first course paper or preparing to write your graduation thesis\, you’ll leave with practical strategies used by successful researchers. \nFacilitator: Dr. Xuan Zhang\, Centre for Writing and Scholarly Communication \nLocation: IKBLC\, Level 3\, Dodson Room and on Zoom. Registrants receive the Zoom link 1 day prior to the workshop.
