Annotation
Approaches the teaching of literature from a constructivist perspective, which sees learning as an interaction among teachers, students, and subject matter. Cobb and Potter draw on Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy in their development of learning outcomes designed to foster students’ higher-level thinking skills. Principles of critical pedagogy are brought to the fore in their exploration of racial identity, privilege, and power in “The Doctor and the Doctor’s Wife.” Closes with a detailed explanation of interactive classroom exercises, including story mapping and reflection activities designed to empower students to recognize and challenge social inequalities in their own lives.
