- Class Description:
- This course is an introduction to the theory and practice of teaching literature and creative writing at the college level. We will reflect on our teaching in light of our experiences, our readings, and our class discussions. We will model, practice, and report back on various teaching methods and activities, both in our discussions and interactive learning activities, and--beginning at mid-semester--through more structured "teaching dialogues." We will apply the very skills we aim to impart to our undergraduate students--critical reading, writing, and thinking--to ourselves as we analyze our teaching through regular journal writings and final projects. This course is required for (and limited to) new graduate students in the English MA, MFA, and PhD programs.
