The word "pivot" has been used quite a bit in higher education in the past year. Faculty have been asked to pivot their space, their time, and their pedagogy, and to turn from one thing to something different, in a quick way. Thinking about pedagogy differently, can turn the pivot to a more fluid student-centric experience, focused on thoughtful integration of new and important ideas and professional growth. This panel shares how faculty at a variety of institutions embraced the idea of fluid pedagogy to create change in their classroom.
