GSA Teaching Network

The Teaching Network of the @TheGSA is an interdisciplinary space for conversations about teaching & pedagogy in German Studies.

[GSA Teaching Network @GSATeaching]

This is an animating value of GSA Teaching Network & German Studies Collaboratory – to provide spaces where we can share syllabi and assignments, with an emphasis on acknowledging the intellectual work involved in teaching by giving attribution when we adapt ideas from others.

[Roopika Risam @roopikarisam]

Let��s make it a habit to put @creativecommons licenses on our syllabi. This will reinforce that a syllabus is intellectual work that merits credit and attribution and is also part of scholarly comminication. (I do public domain but I know that’s not for everyone).

Yesterday, June 27, Alon Confino, my dear friend, brilliant scholar, and true humanist, passed away following a difficult illness. This is a tremendous loss to his family, friends, and the entire scholarly community, as well as to me personally. May his memory be a blessing.

Pleasantly surprised by the news that the German Studies Collaboratory (we still exist!) had over 1000 hits last month, many of them from research libraries of some renown (cough cough, Harvard, cough....).

Great crowd for the first of our Whither German? roundtables, with more people still arriving. Looking forward to a thought-provoking discussion about how to transform “whither” into “flourish.” #theGSA2023

[GSA Teaching Network @GSATeaching]

The second series focuses on the future of German/German Studies programs: "Whither German?" Get together with fellow faculty and strategize about how to build and maintain programs at a time when languages programs are getting cut. 3/5

[GSA Teaching Network @GSATeaching]

Great roundtables this morning! We’re walking away with a lot more information about some digital collections and what they offer. And then some fantastic assignment ideas!

[GSA Teaching Network @GSATeaching]

The GSA Teaching Network is sponsoring two series of two roundtables. The first set of roundtables explores how we might teach with digital collections, including an introduction to some valuable collections and then discussion of practical assignment ideas. 2/5
