Participation can occur in many ways. The more people engaging with the topics, the more valuable it will be for all participants. Here are some suggestions:
- Encourage your students to attend as much of the event as possible.
- Attend as much of the event yourself as possible. Sign up for events here (after September 15).
- Incorporate material relevant to the teach-in into your Oct. 1 class.
- Incorporate relevant material and move your class to one of the Teach-in time slots. See the schedule here Contact the organizers about room reservations promptly, so we can help find an appropriate space.
- Consider redirecting your students’ learning to the Teach-in. The schedule will be full of interesting interdisciplinary presentations with broad relevance.
- Put together an open class, ideally team-taught, on some aspect of the teach-in topic. Here are examples. If you need ideas, we have them!
- Participate in a panel discussion. Here are some that are already planned.
- Plan a reading, short performance or presentation for the Arts Stage.
The wider ranging your politics and positions on the Teach-in topics, the better. We only ask that your contribution explicitly address the connections between racism, climate change and social justice.
