At the 2022 NWSA Annual Conference, Dr. Sharon Doetsch-Kidder (WGST Affiliate Faculty) moderated an event titled: "Feminist Pedagogical Responses and Strategies in an Era of Austerity and Neoliberalization."
Workshop Description:
This interactive workshop will facilitate conversation around the increasing pressures and difficulties that feminist pedagogues – from the k-12 classroom to the university classroom – face in an era of austerity, precarity, and politicized calls to limit the teaching of race, sexuality, and gender in educational institutions. The workshop will also provide space to develop and share practical strategies for responding to and navigating the logistical, ideological, and pedagogical challenges that emerge when teaching topics considered controversial.
