Abstract

Nearly all university lectures have faced the challenges of taking over a course from colleagues. Yet the conceptual and practical challenges of this process are rarely discussed in higher education. In this article, I describe my experiences of becoming the course convenor of an existing medical ethnology course and revising it.  The first challenge was to make the course my own, while also maintaining the existing positive aspects. A secondary, but related, challenge was to update the course material in relation to contemporary social movements that have called for more attention to power, privilege and inclusivity in the classroom.
后万物时代如何承接和修订医学民族学课程
几乎所有的大学讲师都面临着从同事那里接手一门课程的挑战。然而,在高等教育中很少讨论这一过程的概念和实践挑战。在本文中,我描述了自己成为现有医学民族学课程召集人并对其进行修改的经历。第一个挑战是使课程成为我自己的,同时也保持现有的积极方面。其次,也是相关的挑战是更新与当代社会运动相关的课程材料,这些运动呼吁更多地关注课堂上的权力、特权和包容性。
