6th SCENARIO Forum Symposium 2018
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS SYMPOSIUM HAS BEEN EXTENSIVELY DOCUMENTED IN SCENARIO JOURNAL, . FURTHERMORE NOTE THE PRODUCED BY STEFANIE GIEBERT.
Are universities on the way towards a new, performative teaching and learning culture?
21-22 September 2018 | Leibniz 深夜亚洲福利久久 of Hanover
|
If, in its most basic sense, performative means 鈥榗reative doing鈥�, then to what extent have forms of creative doing become part of our university curricula? This symposium aims to bring together colleagues from different disciplines who wish to discuss and experience performative approaches to teaching and learning at third level education.
Modern languages and, in particular, the development of a Performative Foreign/Second Language Didactics will be our main reference point, however, perspectives from other academic disciplines and fields of aesthetic practice are also welcome.
The symposium will centre on the following questions:
- What exactly do we understand by a performative teaching and learning culture?
- Wherein exactly lies the benefit of applying performative approaches?
- How can we make university administrators and lecturers more aware of the immense innovative potential of going performative in third level education?
The main conference language is German, but some contributions in English may also be accepted.
We invite expressions of interest from colleagues on the above topics in the following formats:
a) paper (30 min)
b) workshop (90 min)
c) 5-minute presentation.
The symposium will kick off with several 5-minute presentations which will introduce symposium participants to performative practices in different academic disciplines/university contexts. Presenters are encouraged to incorporate an element of 鈥榗reative doing鈥� in their short presentation and to address the topic 鈥淢y understanding of 鈥榩erformative鈥� 鈥� with reference to my teaching practice at institution X鈥�.
