Resources for Teachers and Students
We are pleased to offer the following online resources to encourage teachers and students to enhance their engagement with the Lowell Humanities Series. We encourage you to adopt our speakers' most recent book as well as shorter essays and contextual material as part of your syllabi. Additionally, the resources below can be paired or used separately to fit a single class or a longer unit. These links allow聽students to watch a Youtube video, or聽read a short essay聽or interview, before or after one of our events. Teachers might also consider using聽these聽resources in conjunction with evening reflection activities,聽or opportunities for reviews/reports during or beyond class-time. For speakers book titles, please see their聽bios. Articles in academic journals are available to members of the BC community through the聽library webpage.
