Requirements:

  • Meet with me on the Monday you plan to lead the class. I am available from 10:30-11:30 and 2:00-6:00 every Monday.
  • Plan the class well. You will need more than a short list of discussion questions. You'll need some answers, some ideas of order, and to have done the reading very well. You may well want to email the class alias (history-310@stolaf.edu) before you teach the class.
  • Be creative. While we can sit around the table and ponder your questions together, you may feel free to incorporate brief small-group activities or free-writing in order to spark ideas. You may also feel free not to do either, and just talk. But have a backup plan.
  • Learn to tolerate silence - push people to answer. Call on them if you need to. Don't answer your own questions.
  • AFTER the class, generate a very short (one-paragraph) summary of the class along with two questions for further thought, and post them to the "FOLLOWUP" forum.
