- Class Description:
- Students in this graduate seminar will read, analyze and discuss various theories and approaches to pedagogy. They will create a teaching portfolio consisting of several components including the development of a syllabus, course design & rationale, learning activities and a personal teaching philosophy statement. Through dialogue, active assignments and writing, students will demonstrate their understanding of theoretical materials. As we explore the uses, meanings and implications of feminist pedagogical styles, we will consider the way in which systems of oppression intersect and overlap in teaching environments. This course is designed to provide students with opportunities to analyze, develop and practice teaching strategies. Our readings will address teaching philosophies, theory and practice; curriculum and syllabus design; instructional and activity models; teaching and learning styles; critical pedagogy as a tool for social change; as well as classroom dynamics and problem-solving approaches. As a small discussion seminar, the course requires thoughtful reading and active participation.
