1 National Consortium for Teaching about Asia Seminar on Teaching about Asia July 16-21, 2007 Indiana University Instructor: Paul B. Watt Professor of Asian Studies DePauw University Greencastle, IN Location: 219 Ballantine Hall, Monday-Friday 238 Ballantine Hall, Saturday morning Goals of the seminar: The seminar has at least three goals. The first is to explore together major developments in Chinese, Korean and Japanese history and culture. Given the time we have together, we will have to be selective in the topics we consider, but you should leave the seminar with a significantly expanded knowledge of these cultures. A second goal of the seminar is to increase our knowledge of the resources available for learning about and teaching East Asia. These resources whether in print, video or DVD format, or on the web are plentiful and growing. Our task is to identify some of the best of these resources. A third goal is to share among ourselves and with alums of the program some of the best strategies for incorporating instruction about East Asia into our classes. Background of the seminar: The East Asian Studies Center at Indiana University, Bloomington, sponsors this seminar on behalf of the National Consortium for Teaching about Asia (NCTA). Requirements: To receive credit for the seminar, stipends for yourself and your school, eligibility for travel tours and other benefits: participants need to complete at least 30 hours of class, complete the reading assignments before class, participate in discussions about the material covered and about strategies for teaching topics appropriate to your classroom situation, submit a Teacher Implementation Plan (TIP) that will include three lesson plans (one each for China, Korea and Japan), and in the fall following the seminar, attend a follow-up enrichment event at which participants can reflect on what they have learned and share experiences they have had in introducing East Asia into their classes. Early submission of TIPs is encouraged but they should be handed in no later than the date of the fall enrichment event. Further at the end of the implementation year, participants are required to submit a report on their East Asia teaching successes, challenges, and ideas for improvements. (See handouts prepared by IU s East Asian Studies Center for further details on requirements and benefits, and on the possibility of obtaining graduate credit for the seminar.)
