Erika Bailey, Head of Voice and Speech, American Repertory Theater; Lecturer on Theater, Dance & Media
We spend most of our time preparing for class by focusing on what we need to cover— what we need to SAY. But are we actually reaching our students? Our physical as well as our vocal presence play an integral role in our ability to communicate our ideas and engage students. Using exercises from the theater that strengthen mindfulness and increase vocal and physical expressiveness, we will explore strategies to keep our students present and engaged while learning. Participants should be prepared to give a very short introduction of themselves and their research area (no longer than 30 seconds) to put into practice the strategies modeled in this session.
This workshop is being offered as part of Winter Teaching Week and is designed for GSAS PhD students and others at similar career stages engaged in the teaching of Harvard College undergraduates. Pre-registration is required.
