The HCSPiP culminates, for instructors and tutors, in a conference on pedagogy. During the conference, instructors reflect on their experiences, and share what they’ve learned from their recent experimentation in the classroom. In addition, a keynote speaker gives a talk on a topic related to philosophical pedagogy. This year the conference will be livestreamed on Zoom.
