Patterns, Places, and Pedagogy

October 23, 4-5:30pm, In-person at the High Line (Rain Date October 30, 4 pm)
Facilitated by Şule Aksoy

Patterns are everywhere—in nature, architecture, social interactions, and even the way we learn and think. Observing these patterns allows us to gain deeper insights into the world and how we relate to it. This workshop will be an opportunity to critically engage with place-based education that uses the local community and environment as a starting point for learning. We will think about how to encourage our students to observe, analyze, and engage with the world in a way that deepens their understanding.

As CUNY Graduate Student Instructors or Adjunct Instructors, we teach students with diverse levels of preparation for and understanding of the public higher education system. This workshop will introduce instructional practices and interpersonal behaviors for crafting a teaching persona and classroom dynamics that center equity and mitigate systemic learning barriers that adversely impact first-generation, low-income, and racially and ethnically minoritized students. Students from all disciplines are encouraged to attend.

Using Archival Materials in the Language Classroom

October 30th, 2-3:30pm, In-Person, Room 3317
Facilitated by Oriana Mejias Martinez

Using archival materials in the language classrooms can help students connect to historical events, better understand the present, and think about language and culture through their own disciplinary perspectives. This workshop is for graduate student instructors that would like to use more archival materials in their language classrooms, as well as those who already use a variety of archives/repositories to enhance language pedagogies in the classroom.
