Date: Mon, Aug 20, 2012 at 12:29 PM<br>Subject: Interesting new graduate class<br><br><br>Hello colleagues!<br>
<br>
Can you believe how fast that went?<br>
<br>
I have "bugged" some of you about this earlier, but now that registration and start dates are upon us, and because this is a new offering and an unusual one for us, I hope you would consider suggesting this class to some of your new and continuing students. It is only a two credit graduate class meeting for two hours on Tuesday evening. It has a very low "work load" by way of reading and assignment...and that which we do do, will be thought-provoking and interesting, I hope.<br>
<br>
The class is: EDCS 5110, Colloquium in Critical/Cultural Studies in Education. We will do a little talking about intro to graduate study, i.e., what it means to be a student inquiring at the graduate level. We will also invite in several other faculty on occasions to talk about how they inquire--and what is behind their process of seeking.<br>
<br>
We will be reading one book all semester: "The Spell of the Sensuous" by David Abram. This book looks at how we know what we know, and pays attention to what most of modern Enlightenment thought jettisoned: knowing through our senses; knowing through sense of place. My hope is that it will spark some very engaging discussions--with some reflective assignments such as sitting "still" for an hour (without going to sleep!)<br>
<br>
Your assistance is greatly appreciated. This is definitely not discipline-specific--one of the good things about working in a College of Education is that my/our classes have the potential to speak to anything about the process of learning/teaching/inquiring... And what else should be at the foundation of graduate work?<br>
<br>
Best to each of you as we all begin the year anew! --Jaylynne<br>
<br>
(P.S. Even doc students who have finished their course work, might be interested in registering for this to be part of a learning community and read and think about an interesting topic. Of course, they, as experienced graduate students would also have a lot to add by way of mentoring the intellectual processes we undertake.)<br>
