Environmental History as a Taught Discipline, Roskilde, Spring 2011

We will use this workshop to discuss how environmental history can be taught, including syllabi design, teaching strategies, instructional materials, and use of field trips. The goal with the workshop is to discuss and exchange experiences with teaching environmental history at both undergraduate and graduate levels, as well as plan a Nordic doctoral course in environmental history.

The workshop will feature:
– Keynote speaker: J. Donald Hughes, John Evans Distinguished Professor, University of Denver, USA: Teaching Environmental History
– Discussion of syllabi for courses previously taught in the Nordic countries and elsewhere
– Brainstorming session on the design for a Nordic doctoral course
