CFP: Teaching Short Fiction (2/29/04; journal issue)
Call for Papers: Teaching Short Fiction
Manuscripts are sought that address practical and/or theoretical
approaches to teaching the short story and other forms of short fiction.
These manuscripts will gladly be considered for inclusion in upcoming
issues of The Academic Exchange Quarterly, a peer-reviewed journal that
appears in both print and electronic versions and enjoys wide
circulation.
Manuscripts in the fields of literary studies and creative writing, at
the high school to the university level, are equally welcome. Some areas
of particular interest are listed here, but submitted manuscripts that
address other areas of teaching the reading or writing of short fiction
will also be given careful consideration.
* Innovative techniques for teaching short fiction writing
* Strategies for teaching individual stories or collections of stories
* Reviews of resources (print, electronic, film, or other) for teaching
particular stories or collections of stories
* Strategies for designing high school or college courses around short
fiction (e.g. courses in American Literary History or Contemporary
Fiction that privilege the short story)
* Techniques for integrating creative writing into the literature
classroom (or literature into the creative writing classroom)
There is no restriction on the source language of the works and the
approaches that could be discussed, but submitted manuscripts should
ideally present ideas and practices that transcend the particulars of a
given story or set of stories.
Please identify your submission with keyword: FICTION
