Graduate Idea Forum
Graduate education involves in-depth exploration of particular
disciplines. It is also faciliated by simultaneous explorations of the
place of particular disciplines in broader intellectual and social
discourse. A Study Group was organized in Fall 2002 by GSSWSR and Arts and
Sciences graduate students, with the support of faculty from various
disciplines, to encourage and facilitate the broader explorations, by
reading together excellent semi-popular books on general interdisciplinary
themes.
Any graduate student or faculty member interested in thinking about
intellectual issues which transcend particular disciplinary borders are
invited to join this working group by contacting Roland Stahl.
Discussion in the Study Group led, in Fall 2003, to the establishment of a
second working group on "Explorations of Teaching," designed to explore
why, what, and how we teach and learn, who we are as teachers and
learners, and how these questions and the answers to them are mutually
influential.
In Spring 2005, the working group "Stories of Teaching and Learning: A
Conversation," was established, to encourage and support ongoing thinking
about the nature and practice of education using Bryn Mawr itself, and the
experiences of learners and teachers here, as a case study. Graduate and
post-doctoral students who participate regularly in this working group can
acquire a Dean's Certificate in Pedagogy; for more information contact
Corey Shdaimah or Cheryl Selah.
