Description

Teaching and Learning as "PRIMITIVE HYPERTEXT" uses texts authored by Octavia Estelle Butler as a starting point to explore teaching as a relational practice that builds networks between all organisms and knowledges. In this course, while we will start with Butler, you will be introduced to a range of other texts that expand our "aperture" (Zaretta Hammond) of our practices as both teachers and learners. How might the 1998 interview between Samuel Delany and Butler invite us think about choreography and storytelling methods in our teaching practice? How might Butler's 1989 essay "Positive Obsession" and her 1991 interview with Randall Kenan in Callaloo help us think about the role of trance, possession, and the ecstatic during the learning process? What does Butler's archive of handwritten notes reveal to us about the importance of revision, ritual, and "failure" in learning? After exploring the role of Lauren Olamina in Butler's Parable of the Sower (1993), what can we learn about interdisciplinarity, interdependence, improvisation, and intuition in our teaching practice? What does it mean to teach for liberation? What is possible within institutions?

Course of Study

Mistakes, Errors, and Tangents: What does Butler's archive of handwritten notes reveal to us about the importance of revision, ritual, and "failure" in learning?

Patterns, Standardization, and "Smoothing": How might the 1998 interview between Samuel Delany and Butler invite us to think about choreography and storytelling methods in our teaching practice?

"Always a Student, Occasionally at Teacher"*: How might Butler's 1989 essay "Positive Obsession" and her 1991 interview with Randall Kenan in Callaloo help us think about the role of trance, possession, and the ecstatic during the learning process? *Quoted from a conversation with Yuchen Chang in Montpellier, FR in July 2022

Teaching for Liberation?: After exploring the role of Lauren Olamina in Butler's Parable of the Sower (1993), what can we learn about interdisciplinarity, interdependence, improvisation, and intuition in our teaching practice? What does it mean to teach for liberation? What is possible within institutions?

Expectations

Time & Workload

Participants should expect to spend no more than 2 hours outside of class each week. Each week, you will receive writing/drawing/reflecting prompts that you will upload to Are.na.

Participants are expected to add to our collective syllabus/expand our primitive hypertext with 2-3 resources/week. These resources could be a song, a recent study, a meme, a line of code...anything that builds our hypertext of understanding for that week.

Is this class for me?

The only prerequisite is that you have either taught a class and wished you had a different approach or you've sat in a class and wished the instructor had a different approach :)
