Teaching Social Action: An Introduction, a webinar, is available to faculty, staff, and students who want to consider developing a course or workshop series on their campus. The webinar will take place on April 16th at 12pm EST. Click here to join. The meeting ID is 820 6042 8090.
"This session will be led by Dr. Scott Myers-Lipton, a Sociology professor at San Jose State University, who has taught his social action course in the fall and spring semesters for more than a dozen years. Dr. Myers-Lipton published CHANGE! A Student Guide to Social Action as a textbook for students that follows his model for teaching social action by having students develop and launch campaigns during the semester the course is taught (or continue a previous semester's campaign). Currently, Dr. Myers-Lipton is writing a companion guide for teaching a social action course that Routledge will publish in January, 2022."
Before the webinar, please review CHANGE! Student Guide to Social Action, preface, Ch 1-2.pdf (Routledge, 2018) and CHANGE!, Teaching Guide, Selection, Ch. 1-4.pdf (Routledge, Jan. 2022). Please note, "Scott has removed a lot of it to keep it brief, but there is enough here to give you a taste of what this social action teaching guide will have to offer when it's published next year."
Please email Bobby Hackett (rhackett@bonner.org) or Scott Myers-Lipton (smlipton@gmaill.com) if you have any questions.
