Episode 3: Dramatically Teaching

In this episode, we have a guest co-host, Ramsey, Mathews, joining us to discuss teaching dramatic works in a literature class. Ramsey has a PhD in poetry, a masters in American drama, and a couple of acting credits to his name! He shares his approaches to teaching dramatic literature from William Shakespeare to Suzan-Lori Parks and beyond. We consider Ramsey's insights into structuring a drama course, the skills necessary for reading a play, the types of assignments he likes to use, and more. This conversation is a must for anyone interested in teaching dramatic works in their own course! We'd love to hear about your approaches and questions for teaching dramatic works!
