Description

Visiting Professorship at the Centre for Gender Studies University of Klagenfurt, on the theme of ‘Feminism and Social Movements’, Spring-Summer 2020, I designed a large lecture course ‘Introduction to the Theories and Methods of Gender Studies’ and a small specialised seminar module ‘From Beijing to #Metoo: Feminism and Social Movement Politics in a Global Frame’. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, I ultimately delivered just the first course, as an entirely online and asynchronous module, to 130 students. Duties included:
• Participating in informal recruitment talks;
• Developing a detailed curriculum and module handbook;
• Sourcing and developing online teaching materials, including my own recorded lectures, open-source videos, a range of reading materials and interactive activities;
• Designing and grading coursework (a learning journal and a research project)
