Race And The Society For Historical Archaeology: Steps Toward Claiming An Anti-Racist Institutional Identity, Michael Nassaney Jan 2018

Race And The Society For Historical Archaeology: Steps Toward Claiming An Anti-Racist Institutional Identity, Michael Nassaney

Diversity Learning Communities

Background:

Archaeologists, as social scientists and humanists, are well aware of the ways in which our personal and political lives influence our practice and vice versa. Since the 1980s archaeologists have paid increasing attention to the rationalization of the past and how white privilege, white supremacy, and racial hierarchy structured the material world. Yet less attention has been paid to how these conditions structure our practice.

If this compromises our discipline and makes us intellectually and emotionally …

Creating A Speech Choir: The Bounty Of Authentic Audience Experience For Students, Susan Redding Emel Jan 2018

Creating A Speech Choir: The Bounty Of Authentic Audience Experience For Students, Susan Redding Emel

Journal of Communication Pedagogy

For most students at my university, classroom experience alone was the choice for formally developing speaking skills. My idea was to provide students with recurring authentic audience experience, attending to the audience dimension outlined by Derryberry (1989) as a critical requirement of public speaking pedagogy. Through research, a new idea was proposed: Create a Speech Choir, combining talents of the students in one performance. Though it has elements of forensics, reader’s theater, choral reading, public speaking and more, it is not identical to any of these.
