This workshop offers ideas for enlivening your approach to teaching with and about disability in the classroom. Facilitator Margaret Price, a researcher in disability studies and pedagogy for over 25 years, is especially interested in approaches that foreground access as an ongoing practice rather than a one-time fix or static list of rules. Speaking from her personal experience as a disabled professor and as Director of Ohio State’s Disability Studies Program, Price will offer a brief background in disability-studies pedagogy along with concrete suggestions for ideas to try in the classroom. This workshop will provide ample opportunities for questions and discussion. Read more about Margaret’s work at https://english.osu.edu/people/price.1225.
