Kenan-Biddle Grant Proposal: Inaugural Duke/UNC-CH Graduate Workshop in Pedagogy From: Clifford Robinson and Erika Weiberg, Ph.D. Candidates To: Co-Chairs Carol Tresolini and Larry Moneta

I. Rationale/Executive Summary The graduate programs in Classical Studies at Duke University and in Classics at UNC-Chapel Hill are collaborating to organize the Inaugural Duke/UNC-CH Graduate Workshop in Classics Pedagogy for the weekend of March 28-30, 2014. Teaching classical languages, culture, history, and archaeology presents unique challenges, dissimilar to those of any other discipline in the humanities. Graduate instructors in Classics must not only communicate to undergraduates the results of their own research, they must also bring excitement to the study of two languages that have not been spoken for millennia, develop appealing presentations of visual art and monumental architecture, and offer insight into complicated and difficult cultural practices, such as animal sacrifice, slavery, and imperial conquest. While many graduate programs now run conferences at which graduates may share research papers with one another, no venue exists at any other institution of higher education in which graduates and faculty in Classics may address their common efforts as educators. This workshop establishes an entirely unique venue in which graduate instructors may benefit one another by sharing their knowledge and experience and by drawing upon the recognized excellence of talented professionals in the field. As a thoroughly interdisciplinary field from its inception, classical scholars depend upon fellow scholars whose research diverges both in content as well as in methods. To proceed with their research, art historians studying Athenian statuary, for example, must consult the research of specialists studying inscriptions and ancient historians writing on religious ritual or archaeologists digging as far away from Athens as Sicily or Turkey. At both Duke and UNC-CH, graduate instructors are often tasked with introducing undergraduates to this diverse body of material, regardless of the instructors’ distinct areas of specialization. Consulting experts with other specializations becomes a virtual necessity, in order to discover the best way to communicate effectively with undergraduates and other professionals. Furthermore, while UNC-CH and Duke both have strengths in all areas of Classical Studies, from language and literature to history, archaeology, and art history, there are significant institutional differences that require specific skills from the instructors operating in each context. Duke offers the experience of a small liberal arts college classroom within a massive research institution, and UNC-CH is an elite public university that often asks graduate instructors to teach both small language classes and very large lecture courses. The graduate students in each program stand to gain from the different strategies and skills each context requires, since they may find themselves teaching in either type of institution soon after graduating. Invitations will be sent to three leading instructors in the field, requesting that they come and share their expertise with the graduate communities at Duke and UNC-CH. Each of the three major professional organizations in Classics, the American Philological Association, the Archaeological Institute of America, and the Classical Association of the Middle West and South, annually recognizes its most outstanding instructors with a teaching award. From this pool of award winners we will select three professors to give a talk and lead a workshop, so that they may share both the most effective strategies and the innovative ideas they have developed through long experience in the classroom. In this way, the graduate instructors at Duke and UNC-CH will incorporate these award winners’ best insights into the classes they teach here, and will also take these skills with them out into the academy upon graduation.

Robinson/Weiberg 1 Kenan-Biddle Grant Proposal: Inaugural Duke/UNC-CH Graduate Workshop in Classics Pedagogy II. Proposed Activities

The Duke-UNC Workshop in Classics Pedagogy will take place on a single weekend in the Spring Semester of 2014, March 28-30. For carrying out the work involved, the graduate volunteers at each institution have divided themselves into five sub-committees with three or four members on each committee: planning, finances, media, food, and transportation. Each committee will take responsibility for executing the associated aspects of the following itinerary.

Friday:

5-7 pm: Welcome dinner for invited speakers and workshop participants • Brief addresses by Dr. William A. Johnson, faculty adviser at Duke and Dr. Sharon L. James, faculty adviser at UNC

Saturday:

9-10 am: Breakfast for invited speakers and workshop participants 10:15 am - 12:30 pm: Morning panel presentations and discussion • The invited speakers will each share a thirty-minute prepared talk on a pedagogy topic of their choosing. • The three talks will be followed by a question-and-answer session moderated by a graduate student from Duke or UNC. 12:30 pm - 2:30 pm: Lunch break 2:45 pm - 4:45 pm: Breakout workshops • Each speaker will lead a workshop on a practical pedagogy issue of their choosing. Potential topics might be “Active Learning Techniques in the Introductory Language Classroom,” “Creating an Effective Course Syllabus and Lesson Plan,” “Motivating Student Participation in a Large Lecture Class.” • Graduate students will choose in advance which workshop they wish to attend. The speaker may assign readings or ask graduate students to bring examples of syllabi or lesson plans to discuss. 5 pm - 6 pm: Recap and closing statements by speakers; group reflection on discussion and workshop 6 pm - 8 pm: Dinner for invited speakers and workshop participants

Sunday:

11 am - 1 pm: Brunch and roundtable discussion of articles related to a specific topic in higher education • Potential topics might be “Situating Classics within the Humanities,” or another such large scale theme, which would stimulate debate and thoughtful exchange.

Kenan-Biddle Grant Proposal: Inaugural Duke/UNC-CH Graduate Workshop in Classics Pedagogy IV. Programmatic Benefits

A. Graduate Community Establishing this event will place the graduate programs at Duke and UNC-CH in an important leadership position by defining a new area in which graduates may direct their energy and focus their attention. Moving away from the now traditional graduate colloquium, Duke and UNC-CH are defining a new paradigm for graduate inter-institutional collaboration. Though graduate students in Classics at both Duke and UNC are required to teach their own classes at some point in their graduate career, they receive narrowly targeted training in pedagogy. The Duke/UNC-CH Graduate Workshop in Classics Pedagogy will help fill this gap in the training of graduate students by starting a conversation about teaching with fellow graduate students and faculty at Duke and UNC and with prominent professors in the field who have been recognized for their excellence as teachers. The Workshop will provide the only formal opportunity currently available for discussing teaching in Classics at both Duke and UNC. Conversation with graduate student peers will illuminate what teaching is like at different kinds of institutions. Graduate students at UNC, for example, often teach both small language classes with enrollments of 30 or less and large lecture classes of 150, while graduate students at Duke typically teach quite small language classes and intensive freshman seminars. This exposure to different teaching environments will assist graduate students from both departments in speaking knowledgeably about teaching as they seek jobs at institutions different from their own.

B. Undergraduate Community Since graduate students at Duke and UNC usually teach introductory language and civilization classes, they often encounter undergraduates as freshmen and sophomores at the beginning of their college careers, when it is most important to capture students’ interest and facilitate their learning. By promoting greater understanding of effective teaching techniques, the Workshop will help graduate students become better teachers of undergraduates at this critical moment in their educational careers. The Workshop will advance the missions of both UNC and Duke, which promote leadership and teaching, by encouraging graduate student leadership in the classroom and by fostering the highest quality liberal arts education for undergraduates.

C. Faculty Faculty will also be encouraged to participate in the workshop, which will help promote a dialogue already underway between graduate students and faculty members. The exchange on pedagogy between graduates and faculty need not be restricted to twice-per- semester visits by designated faculty members to graduate student taught classes, or the occasional nugget of wisdom shared during office hours. By focusing attention for at least one weekend a year on teaching rather than research, for which graduate students receive ample training from faculty supervisors and mentors, the Workshop will promote greater communication between graduate students and faculty, and will provide an avenue by which graduate students can learn about teaching from faculty members both in their own department and in others. The faculty members themselves, despite their greater experience, may also learn new techniques from the invited speakers that will inspire them as they continue in their distinguished teaching careers.

Kenan-Biddle Grant Proposal: Inaugural Duke/UNC-CH Graduate Workshop in Classics Pedagogy VI. Expected Products and Presentations

The Duke/UNC-CH Graduate Workshop in Classics Pedagogy will feature two major types of presentations: the workshop weekend itself and the digital platform on which the workshop will be reproduced. The first night of the weekend workshop will be open to the entire classics community at Duke and UNC-CH, including undergraduates, graduates, faculty, and any other interested scholars and students in the area. This evening will act as the convocational opening of the weekend. The common meal should act as a meet-and- greet for the Classics community and the two short presentations by Professor James and Professor Johnson will offer reflection on the situation of teaching in Classics at the two institutions. Their presentations treat the most general level of reflection on teaching that the workshop will explore, and are therefore the most public presentations. The Saturday morning panel presentations and discussion will also be open to the public, but we expect that mostly faculty and graduate students will attend. Saturday after lunch the invited speakers and the graduate students will participate in focused, intensive breakout groups; these sessions will be the most private activities featured during the workshop weekend, since they will be exclusively for graduate students who will share teaching materials, such as syllabi, lesson plans, or PowerPoint presentations, that they have constructed for their classes or their teaching portfolios. Finally, the roundtable discussion on Sunday morning will employ a more public setting, in which all of the graduates, faculty and speakers will reconvene for a lively and free exchange over general issues in teaching within the discipline. The major public presentations for this event, therefore, are the opening convocation, the panel presentations and discussion on Saturday morning, and the Sunday morning roundtable discussion. In order to reach a wider audience, the committee organizing this event will call upon the services of DukeCapture, a media service that creates audio, video, and digital media for events held on Duke’s campus, to film the Saturday morning panel presentations and discussion. As part of our outreach to the broader community of Classics, we will create a WordPress site through Duke and UNC-CH’s platforms for these blog sites. This site will become a hub for online media associated with this event (and future iterations of the event). Prior to the workshop weekend, the site will host advertisements to raise awareness of the coming workshop, feature a program describing the activities, and provide links to relevant material found elsewhere on the internet. During the weekend, live-tweets and Facebook coverage will be shared on the site, and the media services employed for the event will produce content in the form of podcasts and digital video and audio sampling of Saturday’s events. Immediately following the weekend, once Media Services have finished post-production, the website will then host the media produced during the weekend. In this way, a platform for sharing the event’s proceedings with professionals and graduate students beyond Duke and UNC-CH will be created and maintained for the future. Our expectation is that this website will also be used for the same purposes in subsequent years, since this workshop will be repeated annually, and will become a permanent resource for educators in Classics at all levels, from K-12 through graduate level instruction.
