CBL: Sursum Corda

4 Credits · Level: Undergraduate

This course involves getting to know and teaching reading and the language arts to a school aged child living in Golden Rule Apartments in Washington D.C. The teaching will be done either face-to-face, as we have done in the past, which involves travelling to Golden Rule twice weekly, or teaching virtually, as we did during the last academic year, 2020-2021, in which case we will avail ourselves of the Raz-kids reading program, so as to allow tutor and learner to address the same text from different locations. Traditionally, the course involves readings in pedagogy and literature, two tutorial sessions, a weekly seminar, a journal, a midterm and a final exam and a course paper.
