CARA Workshop: Creative Ways of Teaching with Medieval Manuscript Fragments
Moderated by CARA executive board member Katherine Allen Smith
Thursday, February 19th, 3pm EST
Whether you have access to a vast archival collection or just a handful of parchment fragments, incorporating medieval manuscripts into your teaching can bring the Middle Ages to life for your students. Join us to hear about how colleagues at a variety of institutions are using manuscripts in the classroom in creative ways, from teaching about the history of the book, to designing mini-exhibits, and even virtually reuniting leaves from broken manuscripts. After our three presenters share their experiences, there will be time to ask questions, compare strategies, and get some fresh teaching ideas!
Presenters:
Lisa Fagin Davis, Medieval Academy of America, and Simmons University School of Library and Information Science
Carrie Beneš, New College of Florida
Lea Frost, Vatican Film Library
