| 520 | |a Offers a collection of twenty essays by new and established American studies scholars presenting a wide array of actual classroom experiences and teaching methods, as well as the solutions that they and other American studies teachers have devised to meet the myriad challenges facing the field. Each author brings the reader into their classes to offer specific, concrete details about their pedagogical practice, and their students’ learning. The resulting chapters connect theory and educational action as well as share challenges, difficulties, and lessons learned. The volume also provides a collective impression of American Studies from the point of view of students and teachers. Chapters in this collection discuss teaching a broad range of materials, from memoirs and novels by Anne Moody and Octavia Butler to cutting-edge cultural theory, to the widely used collection Keywords for American Cultural Studies. But the chapters in this collection are also about dancing, eating, and walking around a campus to view statues and gravestones. They are about teaching during the era of Donald Trump, Black Lives Matter, and giving up authority in the classroom. This resource is both a new way to think about American Studies and a timely collection of effective ways to teach about race, gender, sexuality, and power in a moment of political polarization and intense public scrutiny of universities. --Adapted from publisher description. | ||
