Dr. Bruce Avery

Professor, English Language and Literature Department

Project Scope

Pursuing the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning Through a Focus on the Active Learning of Shakespeare

Bruce is exploring methods of student engagement—some derived from Shakespeare’s own Elizabethan theater practices—in order to help his students become involved with the text on all levels. Faced with a student population that overwhelmingly lacks the attention span and active focusing habits complex text demands, Bruce has developed diverse and active strategies for student involvement and interaction. His techniques are suitable for any class in which complex text is read and analyzed. He is completing a book prospectus regarding the project, as well as producing a workshop for SF State faculty.
