Teaching From the Guest Room, Learning at the Kitchen Table: Online Equity Courses in a Pandemic

Abstract

In this piece, I use a series of “found poems” created from my notes and memos taken while teaching, first curating them into thematic poems and then reflecting on what those poems say about the affordances and constraints of teaching courses—especially those focused on equity and justice—in an online format during the COVID-19 pandemic. I also describe pedagogical moves made during this transition.
