Radical Teaching in Turbulent TimesIntroduction

Radical Teaching in Turbulent Times: Introduction [From 1966 to 1970, historian Martin Duberman transformed his undergraduate Princeton seminar on American radicalism. He dropped papers, tests, grades, and mandatory attendance. Duberman longed for the candor and interpersonal awareness of group therapy. Trust and honesty would, he hoped, enrich the discussions each week. This book looks closely at the seminar, drawing on interviews with former students and colleagues, conversations with Duberman, and abundant archival material in the Princeton archives and the Duberman Papers. The array of evidence makes the book a primer on how historians gather and interpret evidence while at the same time shining light on the tumultuous late 1960s in American higher education.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[From 1966 to 1970, historian Martin Duberman transformed his undergraduate Princeton seminar on American radicalism. He dropped papers, tests, grades, and mandatory attendance. Duberman longed for the candor and interpersonal awareness of group therapy. Trust and honesty would, he hoped, enrich the discussions each week. This book looks closely at the seminar, drawing on interviews with former students and colleagues, conversations with Duberman, and abundant archival material in the Princeton archives and the Duberman Papers. The array of evidence makes the book a primer on how historians gather and interpret evidence while at the same time shining light on the tumultuous late 1960s in American higher education.]
