Institute
on Education & Society June
26-29, 2003 University
of Louisville Louisville,
Kentucky
The Rouge Forum is pleased to announce
its 2003 Summer Institute on Education and Society. This interactive conference
will focus on the question of building a caring education community while,
at the same time, building serious resistance to inequality, racism, sexism,
and irrationalism—in schools and out. This conference is designed for reflection
and action, reason and organizing. Please come prepared to participate.
Conference organizers
are interested in papers and panels that examine issues of education and
society from marxian, neo-marxian, and other critical perspectives. Of particular
interest are papers and panels that address: urban
teaching / urban teacher education / teaching and the war on terror / privatization
and commercialization of education/ state regulation
of knowledge and other threats to academic freedom / deskilling of students
and teachers / surveillance and censorship of teaching and curriculum / impact
of “high-stakes” tests on teaching and learning Submissions: We're still building
the program, so if you're still interested in presenting, please send a one-page
abstract of your paper or panel along with the contact information for participants
to E. Wayne Ross (wross@louisville.edu).
