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.

Fall 2022 TLH Faculty Fellows Public Knowledge Events
-
Dear Colleagues,
One of our favorite parts of TLH is our Faculty Fellows interdisciplinary collaborations that contribute to public knowledge and further the mission of TLH. We work to transform the classroom through equitable, creative, student-centered pedagogical methods. Our faculty co-led events directly engage with students and student work as part of the larger conversation.
We hope you will join us later this semester!
