## 2021 HILT Conference, "Tackling Global Challenges from the Harvard Classroom and Beyond"

HILT’s tenth annual HILT Conference, held virtually on September 24, 2021, explored how we can best prepare students to address global challenges in thoughtful and creative ways. The plenary session considered how our collective experiences in remote teaching and learning allowed us to rethink our models of instruction, community building, and curriculum. Breakout sessions explored the various ways instructors can equip students to confront ongoing world-wide challenges through active learning, collaborative groups, and engaged scholarship.
