Pedagogy and Praxis (Panel / In-Person)Presiding Officer: Kathryn Vulic (Western Washington University)

The Pedagogy and Praxis roundtable will explore all aspects of pedagogy and teaching praxis as experienced or theorized by English, Modern Languages, and Humanities educators. Topics of interest might include:

· Theoretical and practical responses to the rise of large language model/generative AI

· Classroom methods and assignments that foster students’ literary analysis skills and that reduce reliance of AI tools

· Recent trends in higher education and high school teaching of the humanities

· Innovations and emerging research in pedagogy

· Practical lessons and useful tools or practices for use in the classroom

This roundtable is open to all approaches, with special interest in how instructors are responding to unique pedagogical challenges that have emerged in recent years. 

The organizers especially encourage papers attuned to some facet of the conference theme, "Our Ruling Classes: Culture, Power, Conflict." The 2026 Pacific Ancient and Modern Language Association conference will take place Thursday, November 12 - Sunday, November 15 in Seattle, WA. Those interested in participating may submit proposals here at the conference website.
