CFP: Pedagogy and Identity (3/23/03; MLA '03)

CFP: Pedagogy and Identity

Proposed special session for the upcoming Annual MLA Conference in San
Diego, California, Dec 27-30, 2003

How does one's race, gender, nationality, sexuality, or disability affect
one's pedagogy? Does having a particular identity tacitly entitle one to
greater "knowledge" of it? In the pedagogical context, how can one validate
the authenticity of one's experience without essentializing such experience?
How "personal" does or should the pedagogical become?

Please, send a 250-500 words abstract and a vitae to

pedagogy_and_identity_at_hotmail.com by March 23.
