Episode 6: A Novel Course Idea


Listen Later

The single-novel course might be the paragon of the English course. People imagine students lounging on college lawns, browsing Joyce's Ulysses or Tolstoy's War and Peace. But is this the reality of the single-novel course? Paige and Margaret investigate the purposes and possibilities of dedicating an entire course to reading a single novel. We chat about developing close reading skills and fully immersing one's self in an idea, but we also delve into the ways a single-novel course can allow us to be more creative with our pedagogy and our education. Join us as we chat about objectives, skills, and assignments and the other potential values in teaching a single novel! Have you ever taught a single-novel course? Or have you ever dreamt about teaching one? We'd love to hear about your experiences and questions!
