Description

In this episode, English department faculty Tiffany Mitchell and Beth Pearce discuss their process of teaching intersectional adolescent and YA literature in the UHON program, and how they hope to port those skillsets and questions into coursework in the English department. We talk about the value of adolescent literature when it comes to discussing tricky topics and ideas, as well as how a course like this can challenge instructors’ perceptions of the literature they teach. Additionally, Beth and Tiffany talk about the benefits of a team-teaching environment.
