Surprising Interactions: Unlocking Content through Personal Experience

This is event is co-sponsored with Books@Work, which conducts seminars in community and company settings. Students bring to their reading a wide array of personal experiences that shape the way they engage with content–how can we make the most of it? Drawing on their Books@Work seminars, three local professors share how participants use their own life experience to reflect on narrative texts–with compelling results. In a discussion-based format, they will explore how those insights might bring new insights to leveraging experience in the college classroom.

Free and open the public.
