We are happy to announce the award of a new 5×5 team. This project unites scholars in Romance Languages and Literatures and Germanic Languages and Literatures who teach upper-division, interdisciplinary courses on race, class, gender, and sexuality through literature, film, history, and critical theory. The team hopes to lay the foundation to conduct research on the topic of critical pedagogy in the foreign-language classroom, and to contribute to current critical pedagogy research by focusing on the specifics of teaching in a foreign language.
This team is led by Adi Saleem, Assistant Professor for Romance Languages and Literatures and Judaic Studies.
