Transcript of Sustainable Teaching and Learning
When we ask ourselves these questions, what will our answers be?:
Sustainable teaching and learning through co-directed undergraduate and faculty scholarship
Dr. Cheryl E. Ball, Computers & Writing 2009
A Short Example
Questions of Pedagogy, Technology, & Sustainability
o What can students teach teachers? o What can teachers learn from students? o What does digital scholarship look
like for undergraduates and faculty?
English 239 @ Watson
Students’ Questions
o Do teachers really know the technologies they’re talking about? o What traditional-student cultural literacies do teachers understand?o How can a university education possibly keep up when students have “google in their pockets”?
The New Work of Composing
o How do new technologies change how we understand composing? o What does digital scholarship look like in English Studies? o How do we define our responsibilities
as teachers, scholars, and practitioners?
My Own Research Questions
o What does digital scholarship look like in English Studies and how does it
work? o How do we compose it?o How do readers evaluate it?o How does it “count” (for me, for others, and, now, for students)?
o How can digital scholarship provide a way for undergraduate students to talk back to the scholars who are often talking at, not with, them?
Key Questions
o at the Watson conferenceo in their projectso in their digital chaptero (in Kairos submissions to the undergraduate special issue)
How Did They Talk Back?
How Do Students Talk Back?
Justifying Digital Works
o Why (and how to) do these projects?o Why are students invested?o How do students/we count them?o What are the publication venues?o Why would students want to write to
teachers as audiences?
Justifying Sustainability
Returning to the Questions
o What can students teach teachers? o What can teachers learn from students? o What does digital scholarship look
like for undergraduates and faculty?
