Episode 12: Building Skills for Research

In our final installment of the Building Skills series, Paige and Margaret talk about the ways we teach our students how to research. Afraid that teaching research skills will bore your students (and you) to death? Fear not! We dive into the approaches and methods that have made us passionate about developing our students' research skills within a literature course. Let's chat about how to make citations engaging, how to enjoy finding sources, and how to skillfully respond to scholarly works, and more!  From workshops to mini assignments to resources, we share what has worked for us in the past and what we hope to try in the future. We'd love to hear your thoughts, comments, and questions!

Om Podcasten

We are two friends who love teaching literature just as much as we love talking. Over the past five years or so, we have each taught a range of literature courses in a variety of contexts. Our experiences prompted us to think about what it means to teach literature in a twenty-first century classroom. In our podcast, we create a place to discuss literature pedagogy, consider the hurdles and concerns the majority of literature teachers will face, form a community to encourage collaboration, work through our own journey and questions, and share our general love for pedagogy. Let's craft our dream course together! Join in the conversation at our website: https://literaturely.wixsite.com/podcast
