Who wants to be a guest lecturer?
Mar. 7th, 2012 01:55 pmAre you living in, from, or an academic/other expert on one of these countries?
Want to help me teach my students more about international politics?
In my introductory comparative politics course, I like giving my students materials beyond the textbook to give them a sense of what politics is actually like in the countries we're studying. Last semester, this included Skype interviews with friends of mine who were politically involved there, showing short videos in class, and analyzing political speeches and documents. But I want more! (Especially more interviews!)
If you have an idea for a good political video or document to talk about in class, I'd love to see links. And, if you're in/from one of these places, I'd love to have you either Skype into class (8:35 AM Eastern Time either Monday or Wednesday, depending on the country) or record a video of yourself answering a few questions about political culture and issues in your country. Unfortunately it would have to be in English. You can comment here, PM me, or email me (wills at hws dot edu) if you're interested--I'm always looking for ideas!
