  • Wands Or Quills? Lessons in Pedagogy from Harry Potter
    Summer/ Fall THE CEA FORUM 2015 Wands or Quills? Lessons in Pedagogy from Harry Potter Melissa C. Johnson Virginia Commonwealth University “The real world, then, becomes somewhat illuminated by these characters who can span both worlds. For example, teachers at Hogwarts can be imaginative and compassionate; they are also flighty, vindictive, dim-witted, indulgent, lazy, frightened and frightening. Students are clever, kind, weak, cruel, snobbish. Lessons are inspiring and tedious—as in the best and worst of real schools” (317). – Roni Natov from “Harry Potter and the Extraordinariness of the Ordinary” When I first began teaching first-year college students in 1994 as a graduate student, I was in my mid-twenties, not much older than my students, and a product of the same popular culture. I frequently made reference to that pop culture and used it for comparison, analysis, and discussion to help my 75 www.cea-web.org Summer/ Fall THE CEA FORUM 2015 students develop their thinking and writing skills. Every year, I grew older and a new class of eighteen- and nineteen-year-olds began their first year at the university or college at which I was teaching. The popular culture of my teens and twenties became a part of the great depth and breadth of events encapsulated in the common student phrase “back in the day,” as the double atrocities of “reality” television and movies based on toys began to capture my students’ interests and as the World Wide Web further atomized those interests. Slowly, but surely, I found myself less skilled and less successful at using pop culture in the classroom as a touchstone or an example.

  • The Unsung Hero of Harry Potter: Neville Longbottom
    1 Jaime Feathers The Unsung Hero of Harry Potter: Neville Longbottom The bulk of J.K. Rowling’s magical series chronicles the quests and adventures of the obvious hero of the books, Harry Potter. We wouldn’t expect anything less. It’s also no surprise that the vast majority of the heroism displayed in the story resides firmly within Harry’s grasp. Again, we wouldn’t expect anything less. What we might not expect is that Neville Longbottom, a character who fumbles and bumbles his way through the entire series, is also a hero. Yet that’s exactly what Neville is. Just as Dumbledore says in Sorcerer’s Stone, while speaking of Neville, that “there are all kinds of courage” (306), there are also all kinds of heroism. Neville’s isn’t the obvious, grandiose kind. It is understated and subtle, found hidden within his determination to overcome his blundering nature and his refusal to allow other people’s unfavorable opinions of him to define him. While Harry’s heroism is exciting and entertaining, it’s also larger than life. It is Neville’s heroism that presents itself in an attainable way, giving it the potential to truly resonate within the life of a child. If readers were asked which Harry Potter character they’d most like to emulate, it’s no secret that Neville Longbottom would fall pretty far down on the list. The majority of scenes containing Neville are enough to make anybody cringe. He melts a cauldron in Potions class and blisters himself and his classmates (Sorcerer’s Stone 139).

  • Gender Roles in Harry Potter
    ENGLISH Gender Roles in Harry Potter Stereotypical or Unconventional? Filippa Tsatsa Supervisor: Ronald Paul BA thesis Examiner: Spring 2013 Chloé Avril Title: Gender Roles in Harry Potter. Stereotypical or Unconventional? Author: Filippa Tsatsa Supervisor: Ronald Paul Abstract: In this essay I will analyze the three main characters in the Harry Potter books based on how they perform gender. My main focus is if the characters challenge gender stereotypes or if they build on clichés, norms and stereotypes when it comes to performing gender. By performing a close reading of the novels and by theorizing them with the help of Judith Butler’s theory on gender as something performative I have come to the conclusion that the Harry Potter novels both challenge and do not challenge the stereotypes of gender. However, all characters show both masculine and feminine characteristics and that is what makes the novels unconventional in this aspect. Keywords: Harry Potter, Sex, Gender, Judith Butler, Femininity/Masculinity, Stereotypes Table of Contents 1.

One prosocial value that has not been explored directly in relation to the series, however, is empathy. Defined as “the experience of understanding another person’s condition from their perspective,” empathy is the motivation behind many prosocial behaviors and values, making it an important focus of investigation.
