Teaching the Literature Survey Course makes the case for
maintaining--even while re-imagining and re-inventing--the place of
the survey as a transformative experience for literature students.
Through essays both practical and theoretical, the collection
presents survey teachers with an exciting range of new strategies
for energizing their teaching and engaging their students in this
vital encounter with our evolving literary traditions. ?From
mapping early English literature to a team-based approach to the
American survey, and from multimedia galleries to a "blank
syllabus," contributors propose alternatives to the traditional
emphasis on lectures and breadth of coverage. The volume is at once
a set of practical suggestions for working teachers (including
sample documents like worksheets and syllabi) and a provocative
engagement with the question of what introductory courses can and
should be.
