Format:
Thinking with the term “flash fiction,” I call my endeavor “Flash Humanities” because my goal is cover relevant topics in a short amount of time, trying to condense a course-worth of ideas and materials into an hour, half-day, whole-day professional development workshop or interactive presentations. The topics and concepts are rooted in the humanities and dialogue with current and relevant topics and issues in education.
Topics:
1. "Building Community Inside and Outside the Classroom or Workplace"
2. "Precarity, Affect, and Empathy: Understanding Student and Employee Needs"
3. "Narrativizing the Self: Representation, Identity and Language"
4. "Leading from the Side: Vertical versus Horizontal Leadership Strategies"
5. "Positionality: Thinking Where I’m at and Thinking Where My Employees or Students are at"
6. "Normalizing Power and Performance in the Workplace and Education"
