Please consider submitting an abstract for the following AAPT session, planned for The Teaching Hub at the Central Division Meeting of the APA in Denver, CO, from February 20-23, 2019:
“Innovative Pedagogies for a Just Classroom”
DEADLINE: TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2018
The Teaching Hub is a collaborative meeting space, co-sponsored by the APA Committee on the Teaching of Philosophy (CTP) and the American Association of Philosophy Teachers (AAPT), that hosts a series of informative programs about the teaching of philosophy at divisional meetings of the APA
Format:
We are seeking teachers prepared to demonstrate an innovative approach to philosophical pedagogy that aims at achieving justice in the classroom. The goal of an AAPT workshop is to leave session attendees with a new pedagogical technique that they can incorporate into their classes. In most cases, this involves creating a lesson plan for the workshop that enables session attendees to explore the technique interactively, as active learners, rather than passively, as witnesses to a presentation.
We will aim to assemble a panel that is diverse in all of the relevant respects, including career stage and institutional affiliation.
Presentations should be 30 – 45 minutes in length and should include a description of what attendees will learn and do during the session.
Submissions:
Proposals of no more than 500 words should be sent to Rebecca Scott, rebecca.g.scott@gmail.com, by September 4, 2018. Please include an explanation of the proposed presentation, highlighting any of its especially innovative and/or interactive aspects.
Deadline for Proposals: Tuesday, September 4, 2018.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Rebecca Scott at the above address.
