Transformative Learning in the Humanities

Transformative Learning in the Humanities is a three-year initiative supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The grant supports public talks, symposia, and workshops as well as a series of intensive peer-to-peer faculty seminars for CUNY faculty at all ranks (including adjuncts) in the humanities, arts, and interpretive social sciences. The program focuses on equitable, creative, student-centered pedagogical research and methods designed for the rich diversity of CUNY students; greater recognition for the importance of teaching; and the role of an urgent and indispensable humanities for the future of CUNY students and a more just and equitable society.

3 Articles by folks from TLH in Zeal’s latest forum on ungrading

    Dear All,

    I’m so very happy to share that there are three articles in the latest issue of Zeal authored or coauthored by folks from TLH. Check out the issue here in this special forum on ungrading (Jesse Stommel also has an article in this issue): https://zeal.kings.edu/zeal

    You might keep this journal in mind and pitch an article to them about some of your TLH teaching methods since they have a recurring forum on “Transformative Teaching”: https://zeal.kings.edu/zeal/about.

    The editors were lovely and the experience writing a short piece for Zeal was really positive from beginning to end. I hope you’ll consider getting some of your TLH-inspired work out into the world!

    Also, don’t forget to join us in person on Thursday next week for the grand finale in TLH’s Transformative Speaker Series: an interactive event with Tracie Morris, who will be talking about her own educational journey, before, during, and after her time at CUNY.

    Click on the link to RSVP: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/523821352767.  Food and drink will be provided. Please bring your students, too!

     

    Best,

    Christina
