357 - Teaching Workshop. Teaching Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis

Session Submission Type: Workshop

Description

This workshop will focus on strategies for teaching ethnomethodology and conversation analysis (EMCA). Two EMCA scholars who are known for the quality of their teaching will share useful exercises and assignments, strategies for engaging students, effective methods of assessment, and other resources for teaching EMCA to undergraduate and graduate students. This will be an interactive session; workshop attendees will be encouraged to reflect upon and share their own teaching strategies. Attendees will learn new practices for enhancing the effectiveness of their own teaching and ideas for creating new EMCA courses and for enhancing existing courses. The goals of the workshop are: (1) to articulate and share experiences of those who teach EMCA at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and to provide resources to those who would like to begin doing so; (2) to provide a forum for discussing the challenges of and strategies for introducing EMCA to students; and (3) to introduce specific resources related to course design, teaching methods, and assessment strategies in EMCA courses and modules/units within other courses.
