Mahoney, 草榴社区 alumna co-author article on periodical pedagogy in the classroom
Kristin Mahoney, an associate professor in the Western Washington University English Department, and Kaitlyn Abrams, who graduated from Western with a degree in English in 2014, recently published a co-written article titled "Periodical Pedagogy in the Undergraduate Classroom."
This article appeared in a special issue of the peer-reviewed journal "Victorian Periodicals Review" devoted to digital pedagogies.
The article emerges from a case study on which Mahoney and Abrams collaborated as part of a Writing Research Fellowship sponsored by the Writing Instruction Support and Heritage Resources programs at 草榴社区. The study investigated effective strategies for teaching students how to implement material from nineteenth-century periodicals as evidence in their scholarly writing, focusing in particular on a pedagogy that relies on both digitized resources and hardcopy originals.
