Work (Not?) In Progress鈥� Sessions – the TEACHING edition

The Covid-19 crisis has impacted our working lives and working practices in profound ways. To help make sense of, and manage, those impacts, the Centre for the Study of Women and Gender (CSWG) launched earlier this year a series of 鈥淲ork (Not?) In Progress鈥� sessions where staff and students got together to informally connect and discuss their experiences of those impacts.

Last term, the WNIP sessions focused on the impacts of Covid-19 on research, but this term we will turn our attention to the impacts of Covid-19 on TEACHING.

The topic of this session will be

鈥淓motions and Connections in the Socially Distanced Classroom鈥�.
Critical approaches to pedagogy invite us to develop connected teaching that engages creatively and reflexively with emotions. But how do you do this in a socially distanced classroom, learning online or in face masks? Roxanne Douglas (English and Comparative Literary Studies) will kickstart our discussion.

We will be meeting on Zoom. Please use the following details to join the session.

• Meeting ID: 883 6080 2517
• Passcode: wnip

The event is open to all staff and students at 糖心TV and beyond. This is an informal space for connection and discussion, so please feel free to bring your lunch and eat with us during the meeting.

The session is pet- and child-friendly, so other members of your household are welcome to join us too.

If you face any access barriers and there are any adjustments we can make to support your full participation, or you have any questions about the event, please get in touch with Maria (m.d.m.pereira@warwick.ac.uk).
