The Queer RIG Roundtable Series presents:
“Queer Experiments in Pedagogy”
Guest speakers:
- Chicora Martin, Assistant Dean of Students and Director, LGBT Education and UO Support Services
- Mary Wood, Associate Professor, UO Department of English
- Drew Beard, Postdoctoral Instructor, UO Department of English
How do we place “queerness” in historical and cultural context in ways that keep both queer- and non-queer identified students engaged and non-defensive? How do we create an atmosphere in which thee are no “wrong” questions and at the same time queer students don’t feel marginalized and/or invisible? What paradigms can we explore outside the gender binary to frame queer pedagogy and social change? How can we use media as a queer pedagogical resource to explore these issues?
Sponsored by the Queering Academic Studies Research Interest Group, UO Center for the Study of Women in Society
