内容和框架
Seminar and public symposia
方法
Throughout the course, you will be encouraged to question whose knowledge is recognized (or excluded), and under what conditions is knowledge produced, legitimized, communicated, and acted upon.
In keeping with the course’s design as a critical conversation between everyone, respectful preparation and rich discussion is essential. Please keep in mind that each of us bring a different background, familiarity with course content, and level of comfort with public speaking. I believe everyone has something valuable to bring to the discussion. We should all avoid dominating discussions or shutting down other members of the class, and work towards opening up conversations. Thus, I will be using an informal talking circle format in most of our in-person seminar-style classes.
