"Innovative Approaches to Teaching American Texts Published Between 1930
and 2000"
American Literature Association Annual Conference
May 27-30, 2004
San Francisco, CA
Proposals Due Jan. 21
Call for Papers:
This panel follows last year's successful and well-attended panel on
innovative teaching methods for American texts published between 1880 and
1930. The focus again will be on specific classroom strategies for
individual texts rather than innovative syllabi or course designs. (A unit
on several short texts, such as poems, will be considered if
appropriate.) Pedagogical strategies for all college levels and class
sizes are welcome, including large or small undergraduate surveys, advanced
undergraduate seminars, graduate surveys, and graduate seminars. Papers
may be informed by pedagogical theory, but this is not a requirement. The
format will be informal roundtable discussion. Presentations will be 10
minutes in length. Please send 1-page abstracts by Jan. 21 to the
address below. E-mail submissions are encouraged.
