Teaching in High or Wild Places

A teaching colloquium co-sponsored by EDWP and the Mountaineering Culture Studies Group

Up a mountain. Out at sea. Experiential learning programs including Semester at Sea and Michigan's own Camp Davis and New England Literature Program offer humanities instruction “in the field” - a phrase we more readily associate with the sciences. How is English taught under field conditions, and what can these experiences bring back to our teaching here at the University?
