Place, Protest, and Pedagogy: A Roundtable on Teaching in Place
Seeking participants for a teaching-focused roundtable proposal for EAAS 2018 (London) exploring the radical (or not) potential of American Studies courses that engage the places in which they are taught. Ideas about place-making, the (potential) for developing pedagogies of protest, the study of protest in place, the idea of reading the landscape and/or palimpsest are all potential topics. Professor Elizabeth Duclos-Orsello is a US-based scholar teaching undergraduate courses and she is seeking to pitch a roundtable that includes both undergraduate and graduate faculty form at least three countries.
