Instructors

Welcome to the instructors’ area of SLICCs!

Here you will find helpful advice for the successful implementation of SLICCs, real examples from instructors who have previously implemented or are currently implementing a SLICC, and a comprehensive resource guide to address further questions or concerns.

We encourage you to contact us before you start developing your SLICC course or if you would like to chat about SLICCs.

We have organized a SLICCs Toolkit that takes you through the major steps of developing a SLICC course. If this is your first time considering development of a SLICC course, we recommend that you work through the following steps in order, at your own pace. If you are more familiar with SLICCs, you may wish to jump around to find what you need!

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land promised to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Indigenous Initiatives Office.
