[SSC] Suggested SSC curriculum with dates, timings and locations

[Sandie Stratford]

This looks very exciting, Mike.
My guess is scholars will be glad to see a fairly traditional structure, at least to start with.
How do we envisage supporting?  I for one will 'dip' in and out when my workload allows.  Will we need to be sure there is always someone/ a minimum number attending?  This is an odd question since -as far as I know - there has never been a meeting yet where no one turned up!
In anticipation....

  Dear All,


  I have attached a suggested curriculum with dates, timings, tasks and locations. This curriculum is based on the recent work we have done collectively and particularly the last two SSC sessions.


  This is only a suggested curriculum. It can be used as a framework for discussions at the next SSC meet on the 21st of July.


  Notes from the meeting that took place on 4th July to follow.


  Best wishes,


  Mike

  > In case you're interested, here is a link to a new episode of 'Positive Politics', which is produced by Joel Lazarus and Neil Neil Howard.

  > Richard Hall, and on critical pedagogy from Gurnam Singh, who is wonderful on the topic. I also have a stint at the end speaking about the

  > 'In this episode, Joel and Neil explore the current realities and alternatives of education, specifically higher education, today. We start 
  > by interviewing Dr Richard Hall about the struggles of life in the neo-liberal university today where everything is reduced to the logic and 
  > interests of money and profit. We then ask Dr Gurnam Singh to help us to think about very different, democratic, empowering, and critical 
  > ways of thinking about and engaging in teaching and learning. Finally, we hear from Dr Sarah Amsler about an exciting new project based in 
  > Lincoln, UK called the Social Science Centre – an attempt to make real the ideas and values of critical pedagogy and popular education.'

  > Thanks and big up to Joel and Neil, who are putting a lot of time and effort into creating these interesting and educational interventions. 
  > Visit their site for the previous five episodes!
