Teaching Workshop: A Pedagogy of Kindness
Thursday, December 5, 2024 | 10:30AM–12:00PM | AIRB 1030
Cate Denial is the Bright Distinguished Professor of American History at Knox College. Her innovative, student-centered pedagogy and classroom engagement was recognized by the American Historical Association with the 2018 Eugene Asher Distinguished Teaching award. Her new book, A Pedagogy of Kindness, argues that academia needs to get relentlessly kind, a practice that has nothing to do with simply “being nice.” Kindness requires a commitment to justice be front and center in our teaching in order for us to co-create learning opportunities with our students.
Join Cate for a workshop on strategies for justice and equity in teaching rooted in a pedagogy of kindness.
