Spring 2017 Registration for Vanderbilt: Teaching, Difference, and Power: Class Matters Learning Community
This semester, the CFT continues this year’s learning community on the many dimensions of social class as part of our ongoing series of discussions of teaching, difference, and power. The purpose of the learning community is to have a wide ranging discussion of both the many issues that arise when teaching a student body of varied class identities, and how the many dimensions of class may be taught effectively. There will be two meetings this semester, one on
February 3rd focused on inclusive teaching strategies around class, and one
February 24th on fostering an inclusive and class conscious campus life,
both meeting from 10:00am to 12:00pm.
The learning community is open to both faculty and graduate students. It will be helpful if participants can attend regularly to form a supportive intellectual community and to work collaboratively to develop courses, lesson plans, or teaching portfolios.
