UO Common Reading Program: Teaching with Braiding Sweetgrass
In partnership with UO Common Reading Program
Potawatomi botanist Robin Wall Kimmerer’s Braiding Sweetgrass, the 2021-2022 UO Common Reading selection, offers touchstones for teaching across the disciplines. In this workshop, the team that developed the new UO Teaching Guide to accompany this remarkable text will introduce highlights from the guide and discuss ways to foster heart-centered, radical teaching and learning about a work that is at once scientific treatise, personal memoir, and love letter to the natural world.
