SUMMARY:TPTN Workshop: Designing Political Theory Curricula
UID:20260406T145838Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-f5d4878dd-r5qzs
TZID:Europe/London
LOCATION:York\, United Kingdom
DESCRIPTION:<p>An important part of teaching political theory and philosophy involves the designing of curricula\, programmes and modules. However\, in doing so\, political theorists may face any number of challenges and obstacles. We often teach broad cohorts of students\, including students who may have little interest in political theory. How can we ensure our teaching is engaging them? We may need to design assessment to fit the module content\, but what are the best ways to assess the skills political theorists seek to impart? How can we ensure that our teaching speaks to and engages students from different backgrounds\, or provides them with the skills they need to succeed beyond academia? This workshop creates a space to share research and experience regarding the design and delivery of political theory teaching.</p>\n\n<p>Questions that might be addressed include:</p>\n<p>- How to design modules for different cohorts of students?</p>\n<p>- How to design assessments for political theory modules?</p>\n<p>- How to design inclusive and diverse curricula?&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>- How to balance competing demands from students\, institutions\, employers and/or society when designing curricula?</p>\n&nbsp\;\nIf you're interested in presenting something at this workshop\, please email a short (300 word) abstract to adam.fusco@york.ac.uk and&nbsp\;john.wilesmith@ucl.ac.uk before <strong>13 April 2026</strong>
