TRANSITIONS AND TRANSACTIONS V: TEACHING LITERATURE AMONG THE ARTS
We invite community college faculty to submit paper and panel proposals for the fifth Transitions and Transactions conference presented by the English Department at Borough of Manhattan Community College, CUNY on April 24-25, 2020. The Transitions and Transactions conference is dedicated to helping community college instructors flourish and excel as we envision, invent and expand our ideas of teaching given the demands of the community college population, the challenges and constraints specific to our profession, and the pressures of our particular historical moment.
Disability has functioned historically to justify inequality for disabled people themselves, but it has also done so for women and [other] minority groups. That is, not only has it been considered justifiable to treat disabled people unequally, but the concept of disability has been used to justify discrimination against other groups by attributing disability to them.
- Douglas C. Baynton, Disability and the Justification of Inequality in American History
Abstract:
This conference aims at joining together researchers and teachers from different fields of language education and linguistics that address topics related to foreign language learning.
The working languages of the Conference are English, French, Portuguese and Spanish, with specific panels for each one of them.
We welcome abstracts for individual papers in parallel sessions.
Individual papers will be assigned 30 minutes: 20 minutes for the presentation and 10 minutes for questions and discussion.
Dear Colleagues:
I'll be submitting a proposal for a panel on *Medieval Neurodiversity* to the Annual meeting of the Canadian Society of Medievalists conference, to be held at the 2020 Congress in London, Ontario, at the University of Western Ontario, June 3-5. Discussions could tie in to medieval disability studies in a number of ways, including:
- medieval mental states/mental health, queer minds, nonbinary minds, anxious minds
- depictions of radical introversion (e.g., Diogenes)
- mental complexity in Middle English (e.g., Hoccleve)
- medieval social anxiety (e.g., Merlin and social exile in Monmouth, de Boron, et al.)
Out of the Classroom and into the Wild: Ecopedagogies for the Anthropocene
We boast of our system of education, but why stop at schoolmasters and schoolhouses? We are all schoolmasters, and our schoolhouse is the universe. To attend chiefly to the desk or schoolhouse while we neglect the scenery in which it is placed is absurd. If we do not look out we shall find our schoolhouse standing in a cow-yard at last. ---Henry David Thoreau, “Huckleberries”

Special Issue: “Pedagogy in the 2020s: Approaches to Student Engagement, Thought Provocation, and Fostering Socially Engaged Thinkers in a New Decade”

“Pedagogy in the 2020s: Approaches to Student Engagement, Thought Provocation, and Fostering Socially Engaged Thinkers in a New Decade”
To meet the needs of the growing body of online students, online pedagogy scholars persist in their efforts to ensure online education is as vibrant and effective as its onsite counterpart, if not more so. However, scholarship focusing on teaching creative writing, specifically, online is limited. As Bronwyn T. Williams rightfully points out, “the scholarship in creative writing pedagogy remains remarkably unengaged with digital technologies” (247). Given the youthfulness of creative writing scholarship, particularly when compared to other work that has taken the forefront in English studies, it is fair to assume that creative writing scholarship might be too limited at the present to include online education perhaps as it should.
