  • Session F PM1 (2:00 Pm - 3:15 Pm)
    0 ***FRIDAY*** Registration (1:00 pm – 5:00 pm) Registration Lobby Session F PM1 (2:00 pm - 3:15 pm) Technology Integration in the Classroom: Pedagogical East Room 1 Challenges and Opportunities Educators recognize that technology in the classroom distracts and disrupts productive thinking. Yet, as educators in the field of communication it is essential that our students know how to engage, utilize, and communicate with that very same distracting technology. Media literacy is a necessity for today’s student. Gunther Kress clearly articulates the complexity that exists at the intersection of media, technology and critical thinking, “The range and forms of available information are changing with the advent of new digital literacies, but we need to be aware that these are not replacing other literacies. Rather they are overlaying them and increasing the complexity of what can and must be learned with the demands of multi-layered meanings and more complex semiotic systems (2003.) Panelists will discuss the pedagogical challenges and opportunities for technology integration in the classroom. Topics to be addressed include: course lessons, technology tools, and curriculum outcomes or goals that use technology in the classroom to foster critical thinking, ignite students’ imagination, mindfulness and thoughtfulness in the classroom through the use of technology in the classroom.

  • Poetry and Performance: Listening to a Multi-Vocal Canada
    0Poetry and Performance: Listening to a Multi-Vocal Canada by Katherine Marikaan McLeod A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of English, University of Toronto © Copyright by Katherine Marikaan McLeod (2010) ii Poetry and Performance: Listening to a Multi-Vocal Canada Doctor of Philosophy (2010) Katherine Marikaan McLeod Graduate Department of English, University of Toronto 1Abstract Performances of poetry constitute significant cultural and literary events that challenge the representational limits and possibilities of transposing written words into live and recorded media. However, there has not been a comprehensive study of Canadian poetry that focuses specifically on performance. This dissertation undertakes a theorizing of performance that foregrounds mediation, audience, and presence (both readerly and writerly). The complex methodology combines theoretical approaches to reading (Linda Hutcheon on adaptation, Wolfgang Iser on the reader, and Roland Barthes on the materiality of writing) with poetics as theorized by Canadian poets (namely bpNichol, Steve McCaffery, Jan Zwicky, Robert Bringhurst) in order to argue that performances of poetry are responsive exchanges between performers and audiences. Importantly, the dissertation argues that performances of poetry call for a re-evaluation of reading as listening, thereby altering the interaction between audience and performance from passive to participatory. Arranged in four chapters, the dissertation examines a range of Canadian poets and performances: The Four Horsemen (Rafael Barreto-Rivera, Paul Dutton, Steve McCaffery, and bpNichol), dance adaptations of Michael Ondaatje’s poems, George Elliott Clarke’s poetic libretti, and Robert Bringhurst’s polyphonic poetry. Following the Introduction’s iii outlining of the term performance, Chapter One examines processes of recording and adapting avant-garde sound poetry, specifically in the sound and written poetry of Nichol and McCaffery.
