AUP DIGITAL CAMPUS

The Learning Laboratory

A video series where AUP faculty and staff discuss global issues

The Learning Laboratory is a video series in which staff and faculty members discuss major current events and the implications these events might have on their fields of study.

Faculty and staff have always sought to enrich the learning experience in the classroom by looking for teachable moments in the vicinity of AUP's campus in Paris and farther afield. In this series, faculty and staff bring diverse perspectives to focus on a topic affecting the city, the country and beyond.

Created during the French confinement period of Spring semester 2020, the first set of videos in this series focuses on the Covid-19 pandemic, with contributors reflecting on the situation through the lens of their professional expertise.
