Dr. Janette Bulkan
Janette Bulkan is an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Forestry at UBC. She has incorporated Open Educational Resources in courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
Dr. Bulkan challenges her students to apply their learning beyond the walls of the lecture hall through the creation of case studies in which students are asked to evaluate real world issues in Forestry management and conservation.
Through support from UBC’s Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTLT) and the Open Case Studies Project, Dr. Bulkan’s students learned how to use the UBC Wiki as a platform to present their case studies. Each of the case studies includes a comprehensive overview of the problem in question and ends with students’ recommendations on how one might move forward sustainably.
